Sometimes Awesome WM on Linux can't recognize a video output change on a cable. That is, if the cable was first inserted into the monitor, and then you reconnected it to PiKVM - it may happen that you will not see the image. It seems that the problem is Awesome WM, since for example with KDE, it is not reproducable. If you turn on your workstation with PiKVM already connected, everything will work fine.
??? question "Windows Limited Available Resolutions"
This is due to a driver issue, possible resolution can be found [here](https://github.com/pikvm/pikvm/issues/577#issuecomment-998713201)
## USB problems (keyboard, mouse, mass storage, etc)
