I can't reproduce it reliably (without stopping work to reboot), but it bites an NT machine on the switch as well. It seemed to be more frequent when I had a third machine attached that had no mouse connector, no mouse daemon, and no X... Naturally, when NT gets bitten, I reboot, and when FreeBSD gets bitten, I restart X, both of which cure the problem until the next time I switch around. I used the same switcher ages ago with two machines and some combination of FreeBSD 2.2.1/SCO/Win95 to no ill effect. My wild-ass guess goes to the driver conflict theory.
