Try using software. I have a video switch only and use synergy to share a wireless keyboard and mouse across my W2K system and Redhat machine on my network ....works awesome. Look here http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ for info. It's as simple as scrolling across defined screens for mouse and keyboard context to switch. The key however is that you have a simple $10 video switch for display switching.

The problem I have experienced with both Gnome and KDE is that I lose control of the mouse cursor when I go back to Linux (From 2000 or XP). It is so uncontrollable that usually have to power off the PC. I ended up placing a logoff icon in the taskbar so that I can get to it via keyboard navigation to do a clean logoff. It doesn't happen all the time, but it happens enough to be extremely annoying. I must say it is better than a dual boot solution though. Good luck, Jim -----Original Message----- From: support@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:support@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2003 10:42 AM To: psyche-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Linksys KVM switch I'm considering getting a Linksys ProConnect Integrated KVM 2 Port switch to use on my RH 8.0 box and a Win98 box. Has anyone ever used this switch on a Linux box? Is there any reason it shouldn't work?
