I have a 'Freedom' KVM switch, which was adequate for settings things up when I was installing Gentoo in a newly-built box & using the previous machine for other things at the same time. However, one of the graphics connections doesn't work properly & today I simply use the switch as an extension of my keyboard cord. As with any hardware problem, the first thing is to swap things around: try plugging the machines into the opposite outlets & see what happens. You may find that one of the switch's channels is defective. > PD: Sorry for my bad english!!
