Debian/KDE without mouse?

Hi All!

I have a little question. How can I disabled the mouse and the keyboard under Debian? If I disbled the mouse, then the KDE is not starting. It is the problem. Have somebody any idea?

By taking them physically out and sealing the ports? If you had keyboard and mouse plugged in, why would you want to disable them?

maybe you want something more like this:
"this code disables the keyboard on most x86 systems."
packetstorm.linuxsecurity.com/UNIX/penetration/rootkits/kbdis.c

pop that, bang, no more typing.
of course, the mouse will remain active, but so what?

We have to start the graphical interface(kde), without connecting any mouse or keyboard physically into the system. We use this machine as a server , so we dont want to bother when we have to restart it via remote access.
If we plug out the mouse , the kde wont start.
This is our problem at the moment, please help if you can.
thanks
