Not sure it will help but I have a Avocent 2 port KVM which was working 
with Win7 and Linux (Debian based distro) when it suddenly stopped 
switching from Linux to Win7 via keyboard control (hit Num Lock twice). 
I was unable to get it to switch by keyboard control and in the end I 
found a small script that does the job for me. I now have an icon on the 
desktop so that when I want to switch from Linux to Win7 I just double 
click the icon. I have since changed distro twice and I am currently 
running Xubnutu 12.10. Window to Linux still works perfectly.
