Yes, it's a portuguese layout keyboard and some keys doesn't correspond with 
the label printed on it.

That's OK, but the numbers is on the same positions on all western layout 
keyboards, I think. And I remember some months ago that was possible to do 
what I'm trying with this keyboard. The main problem is I can't input numbers 
or even 'minus' signal to change input-device and output-device to ttyb and 
do serial console.

I was thinking today because I removed mouse and keyboard and attached it 
again when the machine was on. Are there hardware problems (damage) doing 
this?

Thank you for helping.
