Have seen this problem as well on the Belkin KVMs.  

I came across this item on another list.  Have not tried it myself but
it sounds like it fixed a few peoples problems with this.

They say to put psmouse.proto=bare on the kernel command line or
proto=bare on the psmouse module command line.

There was some discussion of two other options imps and exps.  exps
apparently causes the mouse jumping problem.  imps appears to get a
mouse with a wheel working as expected.

Again I have not tried this but this may be an actual fix to this
problem.

He's like a function -- he returns a value, in the form of his opinion.
It's up to you to cast it into a void or not.
