Hi I run RH Linux 9 and Windows XP on two machines at home, The box I have is a D-Link {CAD $130} and it works fine. It uses [press Scroll-Lock twice then 1 or 2 or ...] commands to control the switcher. The only problem I have seen is that when windows is shutting down it locks out the keybor

That's the same KVM switch I'm using, pretty much the same setup (only my Linux box is running 7.0). The setup is OS independent, just use the 'Scroll Lock' key to switch between computers. The only issues I've had is my Windows box can't tell that my Logitech mouse is wireless any more. - O
