Hi Richard,
Not really, the input driver (depending on how it was started) needs to see that Photon is running, once it sees that it
will be able to issue the Photon events, it will complain if it doesn't see that its running. If it was a case where
it was depending on something, the last suggestion would have addressed that I would imagine, also the kbd module would
be failing as well as it uses the same interface that the mouse does to communicate with Photon. Also you are not even
getting the reports from the HID server (io-hid) which happens _way_ before the Photon stuff.
You could try changing the ph script so that it doesn't call _any_ input drivers, and then telnet to the system once
Photon is up you can start the input driver manually and see.
Another thing to try is to telnet in, slay and restart io-hid and then start Photon and see if that makes any difference
.
Best regards,
Erick
