Starview KVM sticky key problem 

After moving my office, I started having trouble with my Starview KVM.  It is a problem I vaguely remember having some years ago after it first arrived, and then I worked around the problem.  But now, after putting my computer together again, it came back.

The problem is that sometimes, a letter will stick, and get repeated.  Like thisssssssssssss. 

It seems to be a firmware bug.  According to Mike, you can fix it by installing new firmware.

Now, after reading his posts, I understand how I solved it before.  There are dedicated keyboard mouse ports on the starview, but you can also plug your keyboard & mouse to the general purpose ports.  The general purpose ports don't have this problem.
