[SOLVED] Hetzner's server console "dead" after upgrade from 14.3-STABLE to 15-CURRENT

20250730:
        The usbhid(4) USB HID driver is now enabled by default, and will be
        used in preference to other USB HID drivers like ukbd(4), ums(4), and
        uhid(4).  Work on a FIDO/U2F driver and moused(8) is in progress.
        The default is being switched now so that we can find and fix any
        additional issues prior to FreeBSD 15.0.

        To revert to the previous USB HID driver behavior, set the loader
        tunable hw.usb.usbhid.enable=0.

I did try "sysctl hw.usb.usbhid.enable=0" but forgot that I need to reboot thus better put it into loader.conf.

Sorry for the hazzle, the console is working like before.

But I am curious why this new driver and Hetzner's server console don't like each other.
