Any Fedora users around???

I just installed Fedora Core 3 on a spare machine to check it out and I am having some problems. I use a Belkin OmniCube 4-Port KVM to switch between my Windows XP box and the Fedora box. The problem I am having is my mouse will start wigging out when I try to switch back from Windows to Fedora. When I first boot up the system everything works great until I switch to Windows for something and then switch back. It is all jumpy and will just start doing random mouse clicking and start launching stuff on my desktop. The only way I can fix the problem is to SSH into the box and restart the sytem. I've never had problems using this switch with Mandrake or Red Hat. Any ideas????

This is what I found in my system log....

The mouse I am using is a Logitech Cordless MouseMan Optical. It is part of a set with my Logitech Cordless Elite Duo.

Well after doing some more digging I found this article that describes my exact problem but no real solution. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bu...ist.cgi?buglist=123273

I have found unplugging and replugging the mouse from the KVM does the trick. I'm not sure if that gets me any closer to a permanent solution.
