I've never seen that happen.

You sure it is a kernel issue then? Maybe it is the hardware in question?

@scottalanmiller maybe is hw, or a problem with generic kernels, never tried to compile a personalizaed kernel :?

Servers wouldn't run on custom kernels, but they would rarely have USB either. Maybe that is all that it is, no USB on servers

So no USB keyboard or mouse..... while I get out of band management, this seems drastic.
