Ok, I am totally new to Linux. Currently I have two computers. One has Windows ME and the other has 2000 and Linux Mandrake 7.2. The machines are hooked together using a USB switchbox.

I basically can not get my keyboard or mouse to work using USB. I have to use a PS2 mouse and keyboard. I obviously don't want to go buy a new switchbox so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Am I missing any settings? Am I going crazy?
