KVM out of box support for Linux

I have just bought a Startech SV411k KVM switch and it functions perfectly out of the box with linux.
[ so far as I have seen yet ]

the keyboard and mouse jacks are both ps2
video is svga

the switching is a button on the box or through the keyboard*

but since this is something raised fairly often as an issue, I figured that making sure it was out that this particular one works with linux can help those looking to get a kvm.

* I haven’t bothered with the keyboard switching, one button on the box is faster than 3 to 6 keystrokes.
