Similarly, I am very happy with the video quality on my D-Link 2-port KVM, running at 1280x1024@85Hz, my only gripe being despite following standard advice on kernel options for the mouse, it still desynchs sometimes (whereas the win2k box that I'm using to write this mail on is fine with it). Caveat: I don't have any need for X at the moment, so I haven't spent any real time looking at the mouse problem.
