Sure! Even though I think some of the Catalina issues are similar for Mojave and the other way round.

Can you copy my VoodooPS2Controller.kext in S/L/E, clear cache and reboot.

I tried that: I've copied your kext into S/L/E and executed
sudo kextcache -i /

This is the output I obtained, after reboot I had no keyboard nor mouse functionality:

/ locked; waiting for lock.

Lock acquired; proceeding.

do not install kexts to /S/L/E only /L/E

SLE is for Apple System Kexts only

How and where to install kexts:

[GUIDE] Installing 3rd Party Kexts - El Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra, Mojave, Catalina

Installing 3rd Party Kexts in /Library/Extensions Note: This guide was originally written to support MacOS Mojave and older versions (< r5200) of the Clover boot-loader. The methods detailed here are now considered legacy methods and should only used with older versions of MacOS as detailed...

/L/E

Same output.

For those of you who use a german keyboard,
I configured Karabiner such that the keys correspond to the symbols printed on the keyboard. So for example
"left_alt/right_alt + q" prints "@" instead of "«" and so on.

 

[Feartech]

Same output.

So ii.nferno's Voodoo kext still doesn't work for me.
