Hi,


I had some problems using my OPI PC for the first few times. After some difficulties I managed to get all my USB ports working.
But I still have the problem to use my Mac (Apple) Keyboard with OPI PC. Its just dead, nothing happens and also no indicator light for the shift button... but I have no problems using other usb keyboards. And my mouse is working with all three usb ports. I already tried it with Lubuntu Vivid, Ubuntu Vivid Mate and Debian Jessie (Orange Pi Jessie). Any idea how to get it working?

L'm having the same problem with ubuntu, no keyboard appears to work with the iso. But seems to work fine with the others.

I think you should select the right keyboard layout. US keyboard should be the default setting.

I can confirm there's a problem with Apple Pro wired keyboards and the OPI PC.

Using the "official" Linux image: Keyboard is detected but there will be random crashes
Using one of the forum images: Keyboard isn't detected at all
Using Armbian: Keyboard is detected, but the board will randomly crash.

Everything is fine with a cheap PC keyboard though.

Hi friends, please share your experience in choosing MacBook parts. As an owner of this wonderful device, I was faced with the need to replace several parts and it became a real adventure.

Before I started choosing parts, I decided to clearly define the problem with my MacBook. Whether it was a faulty battery, keyboard, or trackpad, having a clear understanding of the problem helped me choose the right parts.

The Internet provides many opportunities to buy spare parts. However, to avoid fakes and unscrupulous vendors, I decided to pay attention to ratings, reviews, and recommendations from the MacBook user community.

The experience of other users is often the best advisor. I spent time on forums, read reviews of the parts I chose, and clarified possible problems others had encountered https://appleparts.io/.

It was important to me that the parts chosen were of high quality and would provide a long service life. I paid attention to the materials used, the manufacturer, and the brand's reputation.

Before making my final choice, I made sure that the supplier provided a warranty on their parts and had reasonable return policies if necessary.
