Default PS/2 KVM to Ultra 2

Hi,

I have an Ultra 2 Enterprise and I want to connect this to my KVM
switch. I already have the Raritan box that converts the PC KVM to a
compatible Ultra 2 format. The problem is two-folds:

1) I have a wireless microsoft mouse and keyboard. When I set this up
with the raritan, the key mappings are completely off on the various
non-alphanumberic characters (:[], etc) as well as the SHIFT-number
keys as well. Now, before you blame this on Microsoft, I also tried
this on a wired non-microsoft keyboard, and the same thing happens.
Other than that, it works fine.

2) No matter what settings I set the video to, it always says that the
monitor is OUT-OF-SYNC range. This is quite bizzare as I tried this
monitor on one of the SUN Video-to-PC video converters and it works.

Anybody have any clues to what is going on. Here is the specs of the
machine:

Ultra 2 Enterprise 2x300Mhz machine with a Creator3D Series 3 (FFB2+)
24-Bit Frame Buffer
Keyboard - Microsoft wireless keyboard
Mouse - Microsoft optical wireless mouse

Thanks,

Ram
