KVM issue

I am using the PS/2 keyboard and mouse on OmniView SOHO Series 4-Port KVM 
Switch with Audio (part # F1DS104T). I didn't have this issue with Slackware 
9 and 10 switching back and forth to and from Windows 2003.

Could this be a software issue specifically with kernel version or mouse 
configuration?

Thank you.

George

I use a Belkin KVM switch with Ubuntu systems with no problems.

PS/2 or USB mouse?
