hi,
i apologize for the somewhat off-topic post to both lists, but I figured
there may be many O and PyMOL users who use stereo with a monitor
connected through a KVM switch?
if so, please see the 2nd question in my email below...
thanks,
cameron

hi,
I'm wondering if anyone would recommend any particular brands & models
of KVM switches for toggling between a couple of different Linux boxes?
a couple of things to note about this particular set-up are:
1) a 2048x1536 CRT monitor is being used, so it would be nice if the
kvm supported higher video resolutions than the usual 1600x1200 or
1920x1440...
2) the nvidia card in the FC4 box supports quad-buffered
stereo-in-a-window (and it works fine w/out the kvm switch), so it
would be nice if the kvm didn't interfere w/ that? (is this possible?
seems like it should be if the kvm switch supports an adequate refresh
rate and all that?)
3) would be nice if the KVM, linux boxes, and USB mouse were all
interoperable. Reason i point this out is that the logitech USB mouse
i had been using w/ the FC4 box freaked-out (at least on the FC4 box)
after being plugged-in (via USB<-->PS/2 adapter) to the PS/2 connector
of a Belkin KVM switch (the popular OmniView SOHO F1DS104T model)...
so... any advice about what might be the most
USB-/stereo-/linux-friendly KVM switch would be grealy appreciated!
thanks,
