I have never used KVM before, so my question could sounds naive: is it possible to find KVM-switch, that could work without software drivers?

"Active KVM-switch" there I mean those that can suppress "unplug events for USB keyboard and mouse", but the switching is done still by "pressing the button on the KVM" (so there are no need to have software installed on computer to handle switching).

Most KVM switches don't require drivers; they emulate normal HID and DDC connections so that the computer doesn't know any different, and detect key presses (ScrLck twice on the ones I've used) to switch.
