Just thought I'd pipe in with a little plug for the Belkin OmniviewSE. I've been using it for about 3 weeks now, to switch between 4 computers and it works great. The Belkin uses a combo of Scroll Lock pressed twice, then up or down to switch machines- a nice combo that can't really be mistake

BTW: The CAS-221, which is the 2 port model has AT style keyboad plugs and both serial and PS/2 mouse jacks. The CAS-421 uses the smaller PS/2 style jacks for both. I might be preaching to the choir, but I do very strongly recommend and electronic switch (such as the Edimax CAS-x21 or the Cybex

The Edimax is buttons only, not keyboard switchable (I think). There are some jumper options, but it has been about 2 years since I got it. Rodent of Unusual Size wrote: > Jerry Feldman wrote: > > > > currently use a Edimax CPU switch (CAS-221). > > Is the Edimax keyboard-switchable? Or mechan

Here is a copy of the e-mail this group kindly forwarded to me a couple of months ago while I was trying to use a Belkin OmniCube connected to Win95, RedHat 6.0 and NT. My problem was that every time I switched back to the Linux box from Windows my keyboard and/or mouse would become disabled. Ho

A coworker just installed a Belkin Omnicube 4-port ($120 at www.techstore.com) for his Debian & Win98 boxes. He's happy with the switch but unhappy with the low end cables(<$10 /set) that he bought with it. The video cable is poorly shielded and the monitor suffers ghosting. A couple good sets
