  I have a 4 port Vastech PS/2 electronic KVM switch I picked up from 
Onsale.com the other year.  Works great with my Logictech FirstMouse 
excepting that I lose the wheel in Mandrake when I switch to another port; 
using the wheel then brings up all kinds of menus, etc., instead of scrolling 
as normal.  

  However, I installed XFree86 4.2 and KDE 2.2.2 in FreeBSD 4.4 today and the 
wheel continues to work in FreeBSD, even after switching ports.  So there is 
hope. 

  I wonder if XFree86 4.2 in Mandrake will permit continuity in mouse wheel 
usage with an electronic KVM?  <fingers crossed>
