I have an Aten CS64A PS/2 4 port KVM <http://preview.tinyurl.com/yte4et> 
and it works fine with my 3 button mouse, supporting all 3 buttons and 
the scroll wheel. I've had FreeBSD, linux, Win98, XP and Vista boxes 
running through it at various times over the last 2 years and it's 
always worked just fine.

My only minor niggle was that if I booted my FreeBSD box while the 
monitor was connected to one of the other boxes then KDE started up in 
1024x768 mode instead if the monitor's default 1280x1024 mode. But that 
was easily sorted with a minor tweak to xorg.conf.
