Unhappy KVM Switches

I have a four port KVM switch, and I am currently using all four of them, 3 XP Pro boxes and 1 Fedora Core 2 box. After I installed Fedora Core 2 I switched to another port to view a Windows XP Pro box, and when I switched back to the Fedora box the video was magnified by at least x4, and the mouse was not working properly (USB/Optical mouse). But when I switched back to the XP Pro boxes they worked fine along with the USB/Optical. For some reason Fedora Core 2 doesn't play nice with the Belkin 4 port KVM switch that I am trying to use. I spoke with another techie who was tinkering with the Knoppix CD on a specific box hooked up to another (no name brand) KVM switch and had similar problems with video and mouse. Anyone have any light to shed as to why? Its like as soon as I press the button on the KVM switch - to switch PC's, it seems as if it sends a strange signal to the linux box, and the linux box throws up....Maybe I've been drinking too much, but this is strange...
