Keyboard Input Not Working After Update from 2.2.6 to 2.2.9

[horkryzard-home]

Hello,

I have installed and used the NanoKVM PCI with firmware version 2.2.6 without any issues. However, after upgrading to version 2.2.9, I lost the ability to send keyboard input.

The NanoKVM PCI is connected via USB. I have tried multiple USB ports.
Once my server is fully booted, restarting the NanoKVM PCI temporarily restores keyboard functionality - but it stops working again after the next server reboot. This prevents me from accessing the BIOS, which is crucial because the server still requires a few BIOS tweaks.

Is there any option to downgrade back to version 2.2.6?

Thank you in advance.

I think I may have found a bug.

If I start hammering the "Delete" key before the server has fully rebooted, the NanoKVM PCI loses the ability to send keyboard input. The only way to restore it is to reboot the NanoKVM PCI itself.

However, if I wait until the motherboard pre-post screen appears and then start pressing "Delete", everything works as expected - I'm able to enter the BIOS, and the NanoKVM PCI continues functioning normally.

one little hack i have found with my nanokvm cube (not pci) is when the cube locks up and nothing works
you can open the nanokvm terminal in the terminal tab, then just enter reboot, press enter and it will physically reboot the cube
this then restores the KVM control/support
it seems the KVM side of it can stop responding time to time, IF you do too much TOO QUICK
and a gentle poke to reboot, fixes it 👍
