Just received my jetkvm today and finally had an excuse to reinstall my outdated ubuntu on my NAS.

Being a modern Z590 board and ubuntu 25.04 I decided to try out the disk feature, unfortunately when using the disk feature it breaks the mouse/keyboard and prevents you from entering the BIOS.

Thankfully mounting as a CD worked fine. Not sure if this is expected behaviour or not, would be cool if we could mount as a disk though to boot from vmdk and other VM drives

I can replicate this with Windows Server 2025 (booted, so not the BIOS), mounting anything as a disk (not a CD/DVD) stops the mouse from working, but seemingly only in Absolute mode.

this issue has been reported as fixed in release 0.4.5

Loopback Mode - Webserver can now be configured to listen on localhost only by @john-- in #560

but it doesn't looks like it's related to this issue... 🤷

Stil having this issue on 0.4.6 (OS 0.2.5), whether mounting as CD-ROM or as disk.
Trying to install Debian 13.
