The KVM switch I have works fine.  I got it from Sonnam (I don't remember
the maker/model/brand... and i'm not in front of it right now).  It claimed to 
be linux compatible on the box, which is why I got it.  If anyone is 
intersted I can post the make later.

I'd guess it's bad  hardware... does it work under MS Windows?
