Does the keyboard work in a live session ?
Does an external keyboard work in the installer ?
Does the touchpad or mouse work in graphical install or live session ?

I have not tried Bullseye, but touch and keyboard doesn't work in Raspberry Pi Desktop for Mac live session.

This is was my first idea, but i have no external keyboard and cant get it in the reasonable time.

Good news.
What kernel version does it use ?
What keyboard type is it (PS/2, USB, or some other exotic type) ?

Code: Select all

dmesg | grep -i keyboard
