From what I understand there are 2 types of KVM switches, a "Pass-through" and a "Store and Forward" type. I've tried the Pass-through and they don't work in my situation either, drops the mouse & keyboard (USB) on my notebook & Linux firewall (Smoothwall). I talked with the manufacturerof the one I tried and they suggested I try a more expensive "store and forward" type, which most product sheets do not list.
I am now waiting for another manufacturer to get back to me before I try
purchacing another KVM.

If I turn on the machine with Linux, after I login to a user, see the KDE environment showing up, I use my KVM to switch to my Windows XP machine, then switch back to Linux machine. At this moment, the mouse is out of control.
This was covered ... try the mailing list archives.
You need something like psmouse.proto=imps as a kernel boot parameter if you have a wheeled mouse.
