I recently set up a KVM switch (a Cables To Go TruLink with 2 ports) to share my keyboard, monitor, and mouse between a Linux system and a Windows 7 Home Premium system. My mouse and monitor work perfectly with it. Unfortunately, when I try to use my keyboard (a Microsoft Sidewinder X4) with the Windows system, no characters appear on my screen. However, I can still switch systems by pressing scroll lock twice. The issue is not with the keyboard as it works when it's connected directly to the Windows system.
Interestingly enough, when I switch to the command line Linux system, the keyboard works when going through the KVM switch.
Does anyone know a solution to this?
