I just installed a Zonet kvm3004 purchased from Newegg - http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?description=17-107-602&depa=0 $36.99 minus a $15 mail in rebate. This box seems to be identical to a couple of others (other brands), apparently made by one manufacturer. It works well so far though I just got it installed last night. I don't use Linux however.
