I have an XP box and a Fedora (14) box plugged in to an older Belkin PS2
style KVM switch. My main machine is the Fedora & I just use the XP box
for Access db needed for work and Garmin software for my GPS. The KVM
switch works ok but I have found that the Remote Desktop Viewer in
Fedora (Gnome) works much better for me; just as fast, and I can copy
and paste some things between the machines and by not maximizing the
desktop, can see both at once. I haven't actually used the KVM in
months.
