Just received my keyboard.
It looks awesome.
I plugged it in and nothing on my manjaro install with plasma
I though maybe manjaro was not supported like pmOS so flashed across to that with plasma and nothing.
I checked the docs and the guides which ellude to it being an auto thing.
I can see the battery charging indicator in pmOS and if I push any harder on the pogo pin area I am going to break my screen.
I was reading some of the forums and reddit and with latest kernel there was issues? Is this an order 'latest' and we should be good to go?
I checked about the firmware ie kernel or users pace but based on the docs saying that it should already be supported and just automatically I came here in case I am doing something wrong.
Cheers all.
I had a similar issue which resolved on its own.
Perhaps a similar issue for when the pinephone pro battery is completely discharged and the peripheral will take a very long time to initialize properly?
For while mine would also charge my phone with no input and upon an eventual reboot of my OS would register inputs into my phone.
Yeah it seems a real shame the keyboard didn't have some sort of LED indicator like a phone to show on / off and charging to phone or from power ?
I'm assuming software could be done to have the phone LED show external keyboard Battery / Charging and or keyboard on / off status ? Would that be a trivial or not task in Mobian / Posh ? Or is it already done in other Distro's / Desk(Phone)tops ?
Found my keyboard to work perfectly in Mobian. Saw it appear in the Settings Menu - > Battery as "alternative battery" and it was a little "clunky / slow" to update in that screen showing when on / off and charging. I don't think it's really intuitive on that screen however it does work as "advertised"
I'd think it would be better to show an "external" charging source clearly there and some sort of GUI indicator for when the keyboards on / off and charging. That would be much clearer in my "humble" feedback !
