  Worked fine with FreeBSD, SuSe 9.1 - 10.0, Win2k, and Mac OS for about 
two years, then suddenly started hogging all the keypresses and not 
passing them on ... definitely a machine past its prime.

  Sounds like copper recovery might be the thing ... or I hold the 
cables till I need another switch. My solution was to compact this mess 
on my desk to the point where there doesn't *need* to be a KVM.
