Thanks for the response guys. I think that I may have found my answer in
the very last post on this page:

http://www.techsupportforum.com/hardware-support/video-card-support/134855-no-display-kvm.html

The KVM that works with this particular server has DDC-2B listed in its
specs (a Dell 2160AS). I can not seem to find that standard compliance
listed for our much newer Avocent or any of the other (cheaper) KVMs that
this server does not work with. Note that I am not ragging on Avocent -
they list other models in the AutoView series that support DDC.

I have never run into this before, but I guess I might have to add DDC
compliance to my list of requirements when shopping KVMs for production
environments.
