Do you have a kvm switch that does mouse and keyboard emulation and know that it works with freebsd? I have an iogear kvm switch from around the last time I asked this question here years back, that has usually worked with linux, netbsd, openbsd, macos and windows. Back then to work with freebsd, each time I switched away and back I would login remotely and issue a command to get freebsd to recognize the keyboard again. The newer version of my kvm switch says it has mouse and keyboard emulation, but I can't get a straight answer out of them if that means the OS can tell that they keyboard has disconnected or not. Do you know? Or do you know of a KVM switch, that does that and is suitable for an impoverished person's home computing needs? Also, I read someone's comment on newegg that the mouse emulation only emulates 2 buttons. Do you know if that is true? Kendall
