If you are runing XFree 3.3.6, you could consider upgrading to > 4.0.2. The usefulness of a KVM switch has nothing to do with M$ WinDoze, but how many systems you have on/under your desk, and how many keyboards, mice, and monitors you feel like bouncing between. In my case, two (hopefully three one day) systems, vs. one mouse, keyboard, monitor. I am running XFree 3.3.6, and have absolutely no problems. I use a Cybek KVM. I suspect it may be the LinkSys causing the problems. It sounds like it isn't maintaining the proper signals.
