From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Sometimes the different USB ports are backed by different manufacturers. Pretty much all of my USB outputs are a bit unreliable. Apparently a hardware issue. There are two that use a different chipset. Those are the only reliable ones.
So maybe check the various USB ports to see if there's a difference.
I've tried various ports on the motherboard and when directly connected to the same ports that the KVM switch was then there was no issue. I've been wanting to replace my kinda crappy board anyways so maybe the new one will fix it whenever I get around to it. I think I'm going to try to just use 3.5mm cables instead of USB and hope it works fine over the KVM switch. Just ordered a few.
