From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I had a similar issue of my peripherals not being detected. I was able to simply unplug the dongles and plug them in to other usb ports then toggle the power on the mouse and keyboard and everything was immediately detected.
Never underestimate the power of turning things off and on again lol
That was the first thing I tried, didn't work unfortunately. Even pulled out the batteries and replaced them.
