Well, looking at this, it seems to work - the ATEN KVM simulates a
keyboard and a mouse to the host computer, and Linux detects the
simulated devices.

I wonder why they don't work, though - it may be either the KVM doesn't
generate proper HID packets or it doesn't talk to the attached
mouse/keyboard correctly. Btw, I really wonder what's inside it, because
it seems there must be a full HCI chip in there ...

Anyway, enabling DEBUG and DEBUG_DATA in hid-core.c should show more.
