RH/FC: Mouse loses sense of location via use of console switchers

Hi Folks.

Just something I noticed that started from a small
annoyance into a bigger annoyance... :-)

For those of you who have a battery of servers, and make
use of a common mouse-keyboard-monitor switcher (aka Belkin
or similar devices) you might notice that if you switch from
one server console to another console (that is to redhat/fedora)
the mouse cursor looses all sense of location and gets *really*
screwed up.  I have not been able to "reset" the mouse cursor
to a "sane" position without being forced to reboot the system
if I want to be able to log into the system.

Any pointers?

Thanks to all that have responded in advance,
~Dan
