My late model IBM 5160-089 came with the IBM model M keyboard, and it works really well. But recently I wanted to upgrade to a clone board since I find the original planar to be a tad too slow to run anything useful. The replacement board is a Juko V30 of some sort. It runs pretty well, but it doesn't seem to like the Model M. I just get a bunch of garbage when I type.
Now, obviously I am aware that XT systems require XT keyboards, but isn't the model M keyboard XT/AT auto-switchable? If so, is it possible to hard wire the model M for XT mode? And if not, is there an adapter I can build or buy to make it work?
