If they are both running Linux you could just do a remote X session using GDM or XDM.  Its been awhile since I have set this up, but I could easily go through it again on one of my machines at home and detail the steps I took if need be.

I'd rather not get a second monitor, so I figure a KVM switch is the likeliest alternative. I've read through the discussions of KVM switches on the ALE list from last year & the previous, which have been real helpful to me, since I've never used a switch before.Since I suspect that such might be overkill just for two machines, I was wondering if anybody had suggestions for any alternatives, since none has occurred to me.Grady HarrisEmory University Hospital Branch Library404-727-3090_______________________________________________Ale mailing listAle at ale.orghttp://www.ale.org/mailman/listinfo/ale
