Hey there, I've got a couple of machines connected to a Belkin USB KVM. This thing takes in a PS/2 keyboard and mouse, and acts as a 4-port USB Hum, and connects to the USB Port on each machine. If you plug in a PS/2 mouse or keyboard it translates them to USB. I've avtually got a USB mouse and keyboard though, and nothing else, connected to the thing. The cool thing is when you switch to, say, a Windows box, it can take around 15 seconds for all the devices to get rediscovered. Linux usually takes 2 seconds or less. On the other hand, sometimes Linux doesn't recover. /var/log/messages shows this: Sep 17 22:29:39 dragon kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 15 Sep 17 22:29:42 dragon kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout whenever you switch. At this point I'm on a running machine with no HID, even if I plug devices directrly into the machine, bypassing th KVM. Anyone have any ideas about how to prevent this, or recover from it? This is with Linux 2.4.9 on a debian system.
