2022年3月26日 · I bought a KVM switch (Greathtek GHT-S7212H2-U2 115$ from amazon) with 2 HDMI input and 4 HDMI outputs (for dual monitors). So far seems like its working. I had to get a converter for the webcam from USBC to USBA. I bought an DVI to HDMI converter for my computers second display output.

2009年12月28日 · The outside monitors were the primary monitor for each system, holding the task bar and menus. I did not use Synergy. Rather I used the keyboard and mouse attached to the kvm switch. Each machine also had an additional mouse attached, so that I could affect the machine when the kvm switch was pointed at the other machine.

2024年2月12日 · Adapter works when connected directly to PC but now when using KVM, an illustration of the setup can be seen here: with red indicating the non working connection path. The adapter is DP to HDMI. K...

2021年4月7日 · The KVM firmware is programmed to know that some graphics cards support dual mode (DP++) and send HDMI signal through the DP++ port when HDMI monitors are detected. Hence, DP++ -> KVM -> DVI works because KVM passes through incoming HDMI signal to DVI monitor. Exotic case involving a DP->DVI converter is apparently not considered by Depzol KVM.

2020年12月13日 · Switch monitor on; Monitor detects DP immediately and shows it; The KVM is a bit slow in general and a few seconds later it connects the monitor with the PC via HDMI. HDMI has some protocol to make monitors detect it and so the monitor switches (first blinking) DP is higher prio than HDMI so it switches back. (second blinking)

2023年9月28日 · If your computers could share a video card, then it could switch what goes out to the monitors, but they don't. So, I see three answers, none of which hit your real question of software KVM. 1) hardware KVM - At work, I use the K&M of an IOGear KVM that does fine for me. Just double-tap the scroll lock and you're onto the other source.

That being said, it's annoying and the KVM switch you have solves that annoyance. However, when you unplug the devices to plus into the other computer, the first computer sees that devices were unplugged and hence causing it to lose a monitor. When you plug the devices back in, it "re-adds the hardware".

2022年5月11日 · The Linux is on channel 1 and can keep everything on both monitors. Windows is on channel 2 and always loses the 2nd monitor during the time KVM switches to channel 1. I think it' not the KVM should send signal to the monitor, is the KVM should send fake signal to the computer (Windows) to let it think the 2nd monitor is still there.

2015年12月6日 · Hey another thing I found out being someone who had a similar problem is I accidentally plugged in to my computer usb 2.0 in the back of my computer. I am using a 3.0 kvm switch and I only use my kvm switch for keyboard and mouse. After that change it seems like everything is recognized and working just an fyi.

2015年10月24日 · The dual-monitor KVM switches I've looked at don't support using different types of cables. They're either all analog or all digital, so I need all digital. – oscilatingcretin
