Is it possible to test a Sun Keyboard with Passmark keyboard test? Most of the keys can be tested but certain sun only keys do not show up. Such as

stop key that is hex 78
again key that is hex 79
props key that is hex 76
undo key
front key
copy key
open
paste
find
cut
pwr
vol
etc....

Here is the keyboard trying to test:

We have never tried. I would suspect that the BIOS & device drivers don't fully support this keyboard under Windows however. If you wanted to ship us one of these keyboards we could test it out. (We actually need a keyboard like this as we have a Sun box without a keyboard).

Hi, I don't have a spare keyboard but they are inexpensive:

The keyboard is $50. But we only paid $25 for the entire Sun box :-)
