Try plugging the Logitech optical mouse directly into the linux machine
and rebooting.. Just to make sure it is a mouse issue and not a problem
with the kvm.. I don't know of any issue linux would have with any
standard mouse.. optical or not. My own mouse happens to be a
Microsoft Optical mouse... works fine..
