Re: Linksys KVM switch

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 keybord so you have to manualy switch to the other machine, but IIRC once the widows machine is shut down the keyboard can be used to switch again. Just to be safe when booting a machine, I always switch to that machine until the GUI interface is finished loading. I use a logitech wirless KB and trackball, and have had no problems {other than batteries dying on my kb and trackball :) }.

Best of luck, I don't think you will have any problems.

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?

Thanks,
