Your connections seem convoluted.

This sounds like a Belden KVM. I've seen this type of problem with them. I have a cheap Linksys KVM where I did have a problem with my laptop after my laptop went into standby mode, but the desktop system remained stable. Another possibility is the W2K system might be running the mouse at a different speed than the RH system. - -- Jerry Feldman <gaf at blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAI4GU+wA+1cUGHqkRAr1bAJsFY3W2dd3gPy5ZsU6hQ7QyIXMN1wCdGOSS tahBXsRd0NSgJfoaBS855T0= =QCMJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
