    Hi,

    I recently bought a KVM switch (Linksys KVM2KIT) to put between a
    Windows XP box and a Fedora 3 box. Everything was working fine on the
    Fedora box before installing the switch. After installing the switch,
    the monitor and keyboard worked fine on both boxes, but the mouse was
    frozen. Rebooting the Windows box fixed the mouse problem, but on the
    Fedora box the mouse is still frozen. I did some searching and found
    this bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/beta/show_bug.cgi?id=111161.
    This seems similar, but in the bug the behavior of the mouse is
    erratic whereas mine is frozen. I tried switching virtual terminals
    and this did not help. I tried the "psmouse.proto=bare, =imps, etc.
    in that bug but nothing helped. I then tried plugging the mouse
    directly into the Fedora box, still frozen. Rebooted, still frozen.
    Powered down, let it sit, powered up, still frozen. Not sure what to
    do now, I could give a rat's about the Windows box right now, I just
    want to get the Fedora box working again. Anyone have any ideas.

    Many thanks in advance,

    Tony
