I have the ANSI pbp from the 2023 batch. Updated the keyboard/trackpad firmware from here https://github.com/dragan-simic/pinebook...rd-updater. Now I can't take screenshots. It's not just that the F9 "Print Screen" key is unresponsive. The actual function of taking screenshots seems to be completely disabled on this computer.
And here's why I'm saying that:
When F9 Print Screen failed, I thought, no problem: I'll just use a dedicated screenshot app like flameshot, or use gimp, so I tried those workarounds but everything failed. Black screen or error messages on all attempts, using multiple apps. Gimp returned an error that said "all possible methods failed," or words to that effect.
I'm a heavy user of screenshots to reproduce financial charts generated on my local machine, for publishing. If I can find a fix, this Pinebook Pro will become my daily driver. Ideas?
