[Herefordshire] Linux 'V' KVM

[Julian Robbins]

Hi H

we had some issues similar to yours with a KVM and linux but they're gone now. 
lugradio is Jono Bacons thing. He's the main man at the wolves LUG.
They've got a live event coming up this summer at Wolverhampton which you may be interested in.

Hopefully see you next month at the mtg. I'll be there tonight

Is any one in the LUG using Linux with a KVM, more to the point can any one suggest why when using a KVM with Linux
sometimes I switch over and all is fine, a few minutes later however I  switch over again and the keyboard fails to work. seems to be related to the shift keys because sometimes when you push them a few times (Bash them more like) it starts to go again, I have tested on different keyboards as well but the hardware at the moment is as follows.

Keyboard is a micro$oft natural (Sorry) 
Mouse is a Microsoft optical
KVM is a belkin 2 port, I also have a 4 port old rackmount KVM that causes the same problems.
can any one help ?

PS www.lugradio.org <--- one I have found on my LUG quest today, if you have not seen this site I highly recommend it, download the recent episode and im sure you will love it ! one for the links page on the web site maybe ?
