• Experience with KVM switch boxes?

    From Henry Law@21:1/5 to All on Wed Dec 12 07:31:31 2018
    I recently ordered a four-way KVM switcher off eBay ( https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/323525778462 ) and I find that mouse and
    keyboard input is lost frequently on switching between PCs. Some of the
    PCs I have are running a text console only (Ubuntu server), and they
    work OK, but the others have a graphic display (Linux Mint XFCE) and
    it's those that drop out. When it happens the mouse LED isn't lit.

    Anyone have any experiences of these devices? The previous two-way one
    I had worked fine.
