Jason - so, you've never seen this problem with the IOgear KVMs? I was afraid of that - it might be something to do with the Belkin KVM and not something you can fix with a change to the X config files. You're right, overall, about the Belkins: the older ones sucked. The one I'm using is the "Omniview E", which hasn't been a bad switch, except that it "meeps" every time you hit the button to switch between ports, and I don't think there's a keyboard shortcut to do the switching either.Jason Tower wrote:

heartily recommend the little iogear models with integrated cables, both
2
and 4 port. we've deployed at least half a dozen at client sites, ps2 is all i've ever used. they rock.
The IOgear units are interesting: a flourescent green "blob" with the cables coming out the back. I had to buy the cables extra with this KVM, so I spent a little over $120 all-up for the unit and cables. If I could find a better KVM switch that would take the same cables, I would gladly ditch it. - JKB
