Is it a USB KVM? I had a similar experience with my Dell E521 using a
USB keyboard and mouse. It is fairly well documented in the threads I
started on the forums linked from my article here: http://logicaldisconnect.org/archives/2006/10/25/making-noise-dell-dimension-e521-linux-usb-problems/
Now I wasn't using a KVM but I found unplugging the keyboard and
plugging it back in would reset things for a while.
It finally settled down after a BIOS update to the machine, but it
resurfaced after a ubuntu upgrade. I found after much further
research that the Logitech mouse I was using was old as in USB 1.0
old. And was the source of the issues. I bought a new mouse and
never looked back.
