Haven't been able to get to the additional tests yet, but I will soon.

Wanted to add some additional info that I forgot to mention, although it's probably not technical enough to help debug anything: when I boot the Linux systems and hit escape to clear the OpenSuSE splash screen and look at the boot messages there's garbage amongst the messages, eg:

^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[ Your boot message here...

When I hit a backspace the garbage stops.

Also, I recently added a fourth system to the KVM that has a GeForce 8200 chipset. With this system when I boot and go into the BIOS, quite often the BIOS starts flashing screens/popups rapidly as if it's receiving keyboard input. Sometimes by hitting backspace I can get it to stop, sometimes I can't. Once the system boots it's fine and it also is fine with external USB drives.

I've posted a support request with ATEN. Hopefully, I'll get back to testing it some more this week or next.
