G19 Keyboard and KVM Switch
I have a Logitech G19 keyboard and an Iogear 2-port DVI KVM Switch (GCS932UB).
This is more for my work laptop and my gaming rig. When I swap back and forth, I don't get the extra G19 keys. From some of the few forums I have read, I am having the same problem.
Does anyone have a good solution for the G19 and a KVM switch?
Thanks,
Acid

Most peripherals that require drivers don't play well with KVM switches. All of the USB KVMs that I have used act as HID devices. The computers senses them as a generic HID device. The KVM basically fools the computer into thinking it has a mouse/keyboard connected when you swap away to a different PC. The KVM passes on the basic 3 mouse buttons and standard keyboard keys. Special function keys like volume or media keys don't always work as well as additional mouse buttons.
