There is a device; the switch! Or have I misunderstood?

Iyos (IME) commonly throw up a "no keyboard detected" even without a KVM.  No
setting is required on the display port, surely, because that's done with a
MDF plus auto config of the Panel??  That leaves the mouse.  In the ordinary
way of things, replugging a mouse is a good way of unfreezing it when it
occurs (=often, with O2), and I do occasionally run with 2 mice connected, or
a mouse and a graphics pad, and nothing untoward occurs.  Finally, many
people seem to have complete success with a KVM, so empirically it seems to
be a problemette with this Belkin.  Not too serious, just makes me curious.
