I'm using 3 ports of a four-port KVM (PS/2 mouse & kbd) and every thing works normally (except maybe some occasional video noise) without special OS configuration. Glad I got it. FreeBSD 4.8 & 5.4. As for your booting problem, it sounds like a hardware problem, but it might be related to power management. I suspect that if the MB returns to a bootup screen, and then hangs, then it is a MB problem. Maybe one that can be avoided by disable APM/ACPI in the OS, if you want it to auto-reboot without hanging.
