Stupid noob question- I got Anthias mostly working- I want to display a dashboard from Home Assistant. I need to log into the page, but I can’t get my mouse or keyboard to work on the screen! I can to the terminal, and I can SSH from another PC, but that doesn’t help. VNC is also set up, but I just get a “Cannot currently show the desktop” error message. What should my next steps be?

Installed on a Rpi 3 B Bluuseye OS Lite image with a scripted install (bash \<(curl -sL [https://install-ose.srly.io](https://install-ose.srly.io))

Hi @shane1234 ,

Currently, the Antias do not support a Keyboard or any HID devices and VNC protocol to cast the screen.
