Dude I know what you mean trust me Linux is very picky with keyboards.
But try going to Best buy and explaining EXACTLY what you need a basic USB keyboard that works on Linux (mention PS3 Linux if possible) one of the guys there pulled one from the back and gave it to me for $5.00 just some crappy keyboard lying around.

grr, bloody USA

!
I am going to buy a bluetooth ps3 keyboard and mouse (in one) from ebay, so hopefully that works

!

So my PS2-USB adapter doesn't work?

This one worked perfect for me:

It even works on legacy keyboards.

In my experience, (and I'm very experienced with PS3 Linux), Bluetooth is a little diffucult to set up.

Heres the Keyboard I was talking about...Its the cheapest USB keyboard I could find that works.
