    I have a KVM swtichbox from NTI which allows me to use a Macintosh
    mouse and keyboard for a Mac and a PC.

    Which would be great except that the user is addicted to this
    Logitech Trackman Marble with programmable keys, and the signal from
    the Trackman is being filtered somehow by the switchbox. So the
    programmable keys don't work, on either the Mac or PC. A regular
    click works fine, and even the right-mouse click on the PC works
    (Command-click does this).

    Has anyone been successful in getting third-party mice to work in
    this situation?
