I have a Belkin OmniCube 4-Port KVM I use with FreeBSD-notso-current
from prior to SMPng and FreeBSD-STABLE, it works fine with my Logitech
MouseMan M37. We have a bunch of these OmniCubes at work, and they
have fits with some cheap mice, but rarely fail with Logitech or
Microsoft (ick!) mice.
My brother informs be Belkin KVM switches drive his Linux machines into
fits, and to use the other really big brand of KVM switches that isn't
coming to mind right now. YMMV.
