Whoa! I think that's your REAL keyboard. the keyboard at 2 is the
fake one (you do actually own an extended keyboard, no?).

I think this as I have an extended keyboard, and whenever I plug my
3-button mouse in, I loose the ability to hit the keyboard programmer's
switch and restart switch (plus w/ only the keyboard and a normal mouse
I have an extended keyboard at 2).

ADB has the ability to remap devices if there's a conflict. I bet there is
when there is the reak keyboard and the mouse's fake one, both at 2.
So the real keyboard gets remapped to 15. Except that the IIsi's hardware only
recognizes restart & debug from ADB address 2. :-(

My mouse (from Mouse Systems) came w/ a utility to re-map the key presses.
I bet if you boot with it, you can set it to do the option-left and option-right
thing. :-)

Take care,
