Thank you.
Sorry you too are suffering this affliction.
At least someone else has this; and by using the Iyonix's own
peripherals, so I now see that it would be completely pointless me
going out and trying to buy yet another bog-standard keyboard to see
if that fixes it, which is what I was going to do today (having
already bought a bog standard one yesterday).

Wow, well that duplicates my reported problems exactly!
I wonder why no one else has reported any problem?
What is frustrating, is that we have no other tweeks we can do (as
users) to get it going. There seems to be no programmable USB delay
that we can apply to each USB physical port, so, basically, it is
completely beyond our control. As I see it, we can go back to 5.11
which does work, or stick with 512 until some update fixes it?
