Pinephone keyboard: How to unloading kb151 module to allow the user land driver to fu
#1
Hello

On my pinephone running mobian (unstable) the kb151 kernel module is automatically loaded
and makes the keyboard sort of functional if it is connected while the phone is switched on.

However I can't figure out how to press the F keys (required to switch to another VT for instance to run sway)

ppkb-i2c-inputd on the other hand allow me to use the F keys, only on caveat:

I have so far not been able to get ppkb-i2c-inputd to function (it does nothing) unless I'm connecting the keyboard after the phone has booted
(which is probably quite risky as the phone is powered on)

rmmod kb151 isn't enough it seems

My question: Does any one know how to switch from kb151 to the user land ppkb-i2c-inputd driver?

Regards Visti
