Hey Guys!
I've been looking for a KVM DVI Switch that'll work with my Mac & PC but been unsuccessful in my search. Here's why:
I'm running a MacBook Pro (which uses the Mini Displayport; i have an adapter to DVI), a Wacom Tablet and a MS Ergo Keyboard, all hooked up to a 24" Dell Ultrasharp. My PC is a Dell Desktop using the same peripherals. I just need a switch that'll work with both of these.
So far, the KVM Switches I've seen use a generic product ID code for the keyboard/mouse when you plug it into the usb ports... so it's not recognized on the mac or pc as being a tablet and a special keyboard because the USB id codes aren't passed through it. So I need something that DOESN'T do that...
I finally found a potential kvm switch that would work - the Belkin DVI kvm switch, but I was told it doesn't work with the displayport adapter to DVI - it just shows up completely blank.
Any ideas/suggestions? Would really appreciate the help!! Thanks!
