I have an IOGEAR (Aten) MiniView USB KVM that just doesn't work. It
appears to be recognized, however, the keyboard and mouse won't work.
After spending a day wading around various archives of stuff
(apparently this problem is not common to me only), I tried adding the
following fixes to my current kernel source at my stock Red Hat
2.4.18-10 kernel didn't have them.
In hid-core.c :
#define USB_DEVICE_ID_ATEN_4PORTKVM 0x2205
{ USB_VENDOR_ID_ATEN, USB_DEVICE_ID_ATEN_4PORTKVM, HID_QUIRK_NOGET },
But that didn't work, even though I've read it should have allowed the
keyboard and mouse on the KVM to work. So I also tried using the
2.4.20-pre5-ac2 kernel and 2.4.19 (no patches), still without any luck.
Here's dmesg for the USB stuff; this is running 2.4.20-pre5-ac2.
