nonck Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hi, I have allready installed OSX successfully on my IBM T30. All works fine and my PC-keyboard with german-support too. But my problem is, that i have to programming java, so i need such special keys like {[]} | and @. I wrote in treats that i have to take the windows key + Q for @ but i have not got a windows-key on my keyboard. Have any a idea where i can get a patch for my PC-keyboard, that the special keys works fine (alt-gr +7, alt-gr + 8, ....)on my osx? (alt-gr = crtl) And i want to thank all members in this forum for there help to make it possible, install Mac-OSX on Windows-PC's. nonck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/6524-pc-keyboard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest terry Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Servus, danke für deine Antwort, hab aber keine Windowstaste auf meiner Tastatur!! nonck Please, stick to the English language here, or otherwise post in the non-English forum! Sons gibbet von son bestussten Moderator noch ein Satz heisse Loeffel, woll? Nonck, have you ever visited IBM's marvellous ThinkPad support pages? You can find the "Keyboard Customizer Utility" there which lets you reassign keys so that you can make the right ctrl-key your windows key, for instance. Of course this might only help you if you're running OS X in vmware under Windows... http://www-306.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-44185.html For OS X native, you might want to try this: http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=1038 Btw, the T30 is a pretty bad series. There's some spacing material (blue foam) between the hard drive and the main board that dissolves over time, becomes conductive and thereby causes a short on the mobo, usually destroying a RAM bank. Do both of your banks still work? If you have only occupied one slot yet, you better sooner than later try out whether the second one stills works, so that in case it's already gone south you can have it repaired while you're still under warranty.

jbjonas Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Yes terry, I had this problem with my T30. Luckily I figured it out when half my RAM stopped showing up. Since I was under warranty, a tech came to my house and replaced my whole motherboard the next day. Except now my new m/b has slightly different specs (which I need to figure out...) Important info if I decide to install OSx86 on it. So what is the general consensus of IBM Thinkpad T30 users who are running OSx86? Should I go for it? or even attempt a dual boot like on my main system? Anyone?

nonck Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 Hi, i have no problem with my notebook an ram. OSX shows and work with 512MB, but thanks for your warning. Because of the keyboard-keys, there where no solution for my problem. I tested uConntrol, iJet, ... but the systempreferences always says that "there is a new version of this program, please contact the developer". and the keys don't let to customize it. any other solutions? by the way, my intel 2915abg wireless card also do not work, but i read in this Topic (http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=3275) that there are such members who works on a driver for osx. If you have the same card and she did work or you have a solution, please post!! greets nonck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/6524-pc-keyboard/#findComment-41366 Share on other sites More sharing options...
