from ps2-mouse + ps2-kbd to usb-mouse + kbd


Hi folks,

I have a new kvm-switch that connects my mouse + keyboard with 1 usb connection. Before mouse and kbd were connected with ps2-cables.

But my computer won't detect this usb-mouse + kbd like Win7 did.
If I look into my xorg.conf I see this:

Code:
more xorg.conf 

Section "Screen"
	Identifier	"Default Screen"
	DefaultDepth	24
EndSection

Section "Module"
	Load	"glx"
EndSection

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Default Device"
	Driver	"nvidia"
	Option	"NoLogo"	"True"
EndSection
That might as well be Chinese, I don't know what that all means.
But how can I get my usb gear to work?

Any help is welcome.

The cause of the problem has been found: the kvm switch is defect.
After swapping the connections the other computer doesn't react on the mouse/keyboard.
