I am sorry for the wrong SKU I haven't read it just saw the picture and
it is the same as mine. However they do have the switch for computers
as I bought 7 of those since 2002 and they work great. Give Starwest a
call and see if they still have the no-branded KVM switch.<br>
Unfortunately I use my switches as I have a linux cluster at home. Had
I not used them I would send you one. In fact I like these switches
because they do not lock the computers and they have been used with so
many diferent computers, brands, etc with the same results.<br>

All I do is to switch to a text terminal and back, so I press
ctrl-alt-F1 and then back to
ctrl-alt-F7 and it works.
A better aproach if the one above does not work is:
I also have about 7 no-brand KVM switches that never lock and I swith back
and forth without any problems using different Linux Boxes.
Each switch holds 4 machines. I got them at <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.startwest.com">www.startwest.com</a> which is a
computer store close to home.
Look here at

The SKU is CAB4WAY. I also got the cables there as well. Simple but swift
solution.

C.F,
Thanks for the suggestion. Swithcing between terminals has not worked
for me. So far, only restarting X has been useful!
The CAB4WAY that you suggest appears to be a printer switcher.
