Video noise with KVM
I have this setup:
Apple 30" Cinema display
ATEN 1644 4-port KVM
2008 era Mac Pro, ATI 5870 video card, dual boot windows/mac osX
I get a lot of video noise when I run things through the KVM, but the noise has different qualities on the Windows and the Mac side. Removing the KVM and the noise goes away - when booted into the mac I get a burst of green static lines that move down the screen, when booted into Windows I get flickering white line segments (1-2 mm long) all over the black areas of the screen.
Any ideas? Is it just a bad kvm?
