I'm intimately familiar with this issue - I have a Belkin KVM and have
screwed with this for too long.  :-(

I see lots of comments on this issue but no real solution (setting my
mouse protocol run in degraded mode is *not* a solution).

I am not flaming, but does anyone know if there is actually going to be
a solution for this?  I hate to say this, but it Just Works(TM) in
Windows XP and older versions of Linux.  What is it about the 2.6 kernel
that is causing this issue - does anyone know?
