Did you try it to see whether it works or not with a PS/2 keyboard?

If it doesn't, you can get a USB keyboard or a USB adapter for your keyboard (getting a whole keyboard will be more reliable and maybe cheaper too).

i was mistaken. in the help it says
"The IBM ThinkPad Keyboard Customizer Utility supports USB and PS2 external keyboards attached directly to your ThinkPad, the ThinkPad Dock, the ThinkPad Dock II, the ThinkPad Port Replicator, the ThinkPad Port Replicator II, the ThinkPad Mini Dock, or the X2 and X3 UltraBase(TM)."

so the external keyboard shortcuts should work.
