I haven't followed this thread closely, so sorry if this has already
been suggested.  On my KVM at work, if I switch over to a windows
computer and then back to my linux box my mouse goes crazy (I don't know
why, but its common to our Belkin KVM's).  If I unplug and replug my
mouse, everything works fine after then.  Does this work for you?
