I've got two dfferent kvm switches & neither work very well with Ubuntu.
I've tried all the different versions from 9.10 going back to 7.04.
The monitor is only recognized if I boot from the first port so a live CD will 
only work if I'm connected to the first port. If I modify or as in 9.10 create 
an xorg.conf file I can make things work where Ubuntu can be used on a port 
other than the first one but it must be booted with that port active or else 
there will be a blank screen when I change to it.
Once Ubuntu recognizes the screen I can switch back & forth with the KVM with 
no problems.
Windows doesn't have that problem so I assume its a combination of the KVM 
switch & how Ubuntu recognizes the monitor. I'm using:
4-port Aluratek AKSP04
2-port Trendnet TK-200
both are for VGA monitor & ps2 mouse & keyboard
