Re: [OT] X-friendly KVM switch?

[Mark Huff <mhuff@pegasus.yi.org>]

I use a "ServerLink SOHO KVM 4 port switch that is made here in 
Australia, and have never had a problem switching between my linux boxes 
and windows systems i am working on.  The only problem I have found in 
using my KVM is during the install phase of Debian - it does not detect 
the mouse properly, requiring me to us xf86config and editting the 
XF86Config file to get things set right.  After that it works great...
