My wife uses a Microsoft Natural keyboard which just crapped out.
Unfortunately, Microsoft has been screwing around with the edit key
layout on their new keyboards, and there's only one they sell with the
right layout. Also unfortunately, it is a USB keyboard. She uses a
single keyboard, mouse and monitor to drive both a Windows and a Linux
box through a standard KVM switch currently. If she has to switch to
this new USB keyboard, I'm not sure how it's going to work with the KVM.
So here's the question-- given this arrangement, is there an animal
which will do this:
_____
USB keyboard ----->| |--------------->Windows computer
PS/2 mouse ------->| KVM |
DB15 video ------->| |--------------->Linux computer
-----
or
_____
USB keyboard ----->| |--------------->Windows computer
USB mouse -------->| KVM |
DB15 video ------->| |--------------->Linux computer
-----
