I am very curious about how qubes project/ITL is utilizing PiKVM (after I saw @marmarek's PRs related to PiKVM recently). And if this is related to the USB-connected secure keyboarding initiative.

This issue is being closed because:

• This issue is believed to affect only Qubes OS 4.1 (and possibly earlier).
• Qubes OS 4.1 has reached end-of-life (EOL).

If anyone believes that this issue should be reopened, please leave a comment saying so.
(For example, if a bug still affects Qubes OS 4.2, then the comment "Affects 4.2" will suffice.)

I believe the description is reversed - only clicks work, but not movement. And this issue is fixed already in QubesOS/qubes-app-linux-input-proxy#29 (and later extended in QubesOS/qubes-app-linux-input-proxy#34).
