I presently have a Samsung 24" digital monitor and a Logitech S510 cordless keyboard & mouse combination. The keyboard, mouse and monitor presently work fine on FreeBSD. I am wondering if anyone has any personal experience with using KVM switches with FreeBSD and what that experience might be. I would really like to integrate these two PC into using just one common monitor, etcetera mostly due to space considerations. -- Carmel ✌ carmel_ny@hotmail.com
