Keyboard transplant issues
You definitely need to flash the ANSI keyboard firmware onto your Pinebook Pro if you switch keyboard types. I pasted the instructions from the wiki below. I am not sure if it is possible to run these instructions on Chromium OS, so I would highly recommend grabbing one of the Ubuntu releases from here: https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=...re_Release, loading it onto an SD card, and running the commands listed below from there. Good luck!
ANSI Model
git clone https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/pineboo...rd-updater
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev xxd
make
Step 1
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo ./updater step-1 ansi
sudo reboot
Step 2 (after reboot)
cd pinebook-pro-keyboard-updater
sudo ./updater step-2 ansi
sudo reboot
When done, if some of the keys produce in-correct characters, please check your OSes' language settings. For ANSI users, the default OS shipped with English UK as the default language. You can change it to English US if desired.
ANSI Model
- NOTE: Running step-1 on the ansi keyboard model will make the keyboard and trackpad inaccessible until step-2 is run, so an external keyboard must be connected to complete the update on this model!
