The Belkin 2-port (with built-in cables), 4-port, and 8-port KVM switches 
work really well.  Tested with Windows 98/XP, FreeBSD 
4.10/4.11/5.3/5.4/6.0, and an early release of DFly (1.0 or 1.2).  The 
only issue with BSD is that you either have to boot with the KVM set to 
that port, or add flags=0x100 to the keyboard driver (atkbd I think).  
Otherwise, the keyboard won't work for that boot session.
