I use this one:
http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Merchant_Id=&Section_Id=201729&pcount=&Product_Id=160623
Belkin OmniView™ SOHO Series KVM Switch with Audio, USB and VGA
with three Ubuntu systems behind it, and it works fairly well overall. I'm
unable to use the hotkey feature, because if I connect my keyboard to the
keyboard input on the device (rather than the auxiliary USB), it can't keep
up with my typing. Also, the switch doesn't support DDC, so I have to
configure the sync ranges for my monitor manually.
