I have the same model of Belkin Omni-cube, and I use it with FreeBSD, Linux, and Win2K. The keyboard is a typical HP "Internet" keyboard, and the mouse is a MS Wheel mouse. I have not had any problems switching between machines, EXCEPT that when a machine is booting up, the KVM must be set to that machine in order for recognition of the mouse and kbd to work properly. I find this to be true for Win, FBSD, and Linux. Once the machine has booted, I can switch away and back with no problems. I believe I was running FBSD 4.3 when I first installed the KVM.
