Many machines with IPMI do give you keyboard in ddb. It may be worth disabling usb3 in bios. Not certain if it will help but maybe. Or switch to serial-over-lan instead of IPMI KVM and configure the machine for serial console on the port connected to the KVM (there's an example for how to connect from client-side in the conserver port; I just run all my consoles on conserver so I don't have to remember whether they're IPMI SOL or real cereal console..). > (supermicro branded java crap). Other than serial-over-lan, ports/net/noVNC is fairly likely to work for connecting to KVM on this machine. Then it's html5+websockets crap instead, but at least it's a bit less unpleasant than java.
