Since Dapper, Ubuntu hasn't worked with my KVM switch, or those of others judging by forum messages.
The mouse is unusable, moving very erratically and selecting items without pressing any buttons.
The keyboard adds characters to what is typed.
If the Ubuntu machine is not selected at the time, Ubuntu boots up with low-definition video instead of that last used or set through preferences.
I've tried more than one mouse/track ball. My KVM switch is a Starview SV411, one year old.
