Yes, it´s set as furrin (hence the international generic). I looked up the
keyboard part number (598692-xxx). Does not look like it was used in any
of the omnibooks or pavilions. Will just go with the US generic tomorrow
if nobody has a revelation.
And by the way, I have had limited luck with ROS kinetic, lisp and some
science and engineering goodies (yes, trying to get them working
together). That adventure will be a different post.
