Pinephone keyboard: How to unloading kb151 module to allow the user land driver to fu
#5
I've found the userland driver works fine if you blacklist the kb151 module so it never loads and run ppkb-i2c-inputd from a systemd unit file or other means. However if the kb151 module is loaded, the userland driver won't work even after kb151 is unloaded from the kernel. (This is on the regular Pinephone running Mobian, not the Pro.)

About the only downside I see to blacklisting kb151 is that the hardware keyboard cannot be used to enter the unlock key if you are using full disk encryption. Given the choice though I prefer to unlock the drive with the onscreen keyboard and have the better key mapping when userpace loads up.
