Are your switches PS/2 style or AT style? I use a mechanical KVM, AT style, and just recently hooked up my first computer that had a PS/2 port for the mouse. I found I had better luck running the mouse into a serial port than the PS/2 port. (I tried PS/2 to AT converters on the input and output of the switch -- it works fine for the keyboard but did not work for the mouse.)
I'm just wondering if, when I buy an electronic KVM, I'm better off buying an AT style, using PS/2 to AT converters for the keyboard, and sticking with serial mice?
