The internal and external displays work fine. When I plug in the external mouse and keyboard, where they were previously working they now do not; power applies to the mouse as the LED lights up, but neither it nor the keyboard is recognized. On the external display I see the tubes background and one terminal window, but I no longer see the zBitx window similar to what is on the built-in display. I am unable to run the software update procedure on page 22 as the keyboard and mouse are not recognized. The terminal window shows 4 lines of text and ends in a prompt "pi@sbitx:~/sbitx $"

I recommend that if you add a mouse, keyboard, or monitor, you restart the device, because the built-in SBC (single board computer) is simple and very stupid and will only recognize external hardware detected at startup.
