I've picked up several brands of non-IBM laptop port splitters over the
years, and found that without exception, on an IBM Thinkpad, I had to swap
the keyboard and mouse assignments, plugging the external keyboard into the
mouse port and the external mouse into the keyboard port.  The one I'm
using right now is a Belkin from CompUSA, and that's how its connected.
