Irrelevant but tourist information even so: If I switch over to that box directly, the keyboard and mouse lock up if I unplug/replug to restore, the logged in xfce session crashes and I have to log back inĪnother post earlier in here suggested a HDMI dummy plug, but that shouldn't enter the picture - I'm running displayport. In one case, it only showed 25% of the display - toward the upper-left corner.

Anyway, the session is EXTREMELY slow at that point to respond. The display on the Linux side will only show the first monitor, and will show it as if it is one of those UHD monitors, I guess? The ones that basically span 3x wider than their height I think. I've noticed, then, that since installing the KVM, I get the following conditions: I log into the Windows box, I connect to the Linux box, and.well, that's weird, it thinks I have a 40' super-wide screen. And everything works fine when I'm switching back and forth in the way of operation.īut here's where the problem begins. Over this past weekend, I installed a KVM switch - a 2x4 CKL device using displayport, and this specifically because I also have a third box in this install. Work box is a company-issue Dell laptop (Dude!!!) running Windows 11 on a thunderbolt dock, and is up to date. Personal box is a Linux box, running Debian stable. I've got Anydesk set up between my work box and personal box so I can go tool around with things that are not work related when my work is currently waiting on something. Tl dr: Anydesk, when connected to a Linux box that is connected to a KVM switch and has two monitors, does very weird things when connected.

Not my favorite but it is what it is - and the issue is, for all intents and purposes, resolved. UPDATE, at 21:18 PST: the CKL 642DP, the device in question, does not support EDID at all - which means I gotta buy some dummy passthrough dongles.
