I have a 'Freedom' KVM switch, which was adequate for settings things up |
| 13 |
when I was installing Gentoo in a newly-built box |
| 14 |
& using the previous machine for other things at the same time. |
| 15 |
However, one of the graphics connections doesn't work properly |
| 16 |
& today I simply use the switch as an extension of my keyboard cord. |
| 17 |
As with any hardware problem, the first thing is to swap things around: |
| 18 |
try plugging the machines into the opposite outlets & see what happens. |
| 19 |
You may find that one of the switch's channels is defective. |
