G5 keyboard fails on certain Belkin Omniview KVM switches
Authored by: timb on Oct 21, '03 03:28:36AM

This problem has been around since at least december 2002, I bought the same model for the same reason, limited space, and this even had audio! The belkin techs were morons. I ended up getting a replacement unit, which was still broken. Finally got my money back and got a USB Switchbox. Hooked that to a powered hub and that took care of my keyboard and mouse switching. Lucky for me my Samsung monitor had BNC and VGA ports, so I got a BNC to DVI-A cable, and hooked that to the PC. Buyer beware. Belkin is a cheap company with no regards for the customer. I have a USB video capture cable that belkin has been promising OS X drivers for since 2001. Like the other guy said, don't hold your breath on a firmware update.
