Ditto.

And as an additional data point, I've used the same Belkin OmniView 4
Port SE Switch with FreeBSD over the past 4 years.  First with a
Logitech Palm PS/2 mouse, now with a Microsoft Intellimouse (USB, with a
USB -> PS/2 adapter) with that switch, and have never had any mouse
jitter problems, either with the 3 FreeBSD boxes that are attached to
that switch, or with the Windows box.
