Talking about weird KVM behaviour, one of my mates has a HP computer
(don't blame me, he bought it before I knew him) and when I connect it
up to my KVM it does not recognise the mouse on every alternate boot.
I use a USB mouse so that I don't have to reboot it twice just to use
the mouse.
When we installed Ubuntu the PS2 mouse worked every single time.
