Randy,
	I also read that FreeBSD 4 does not require the psm flag to be set.
However from my own experience, I found this to be untrue. I had to manually
set the flag in order for our mouse to function under Cybex KVM switches.

FreeBSD 3 requires a kernel psm flag to be set [flags 0x100].
FreeBSD 4 does not.

In NT, try changing your mouse driver to standard ps/2 mouse.
Some proprietary drivers utilize PS2 SYNC, which will break through a
KVM switch.

BTW, I use a Belkin Omniport.
