Unable to log in on first boot due to usb keyboard not functioning correctly. Text is shown after return key is hit, basically not possible to log in. Thanks

Hi, all working fine. Used remote browser access to interface with Modep and created a test pedalboard. Thanks for all your responses. Difficult to say why the keyboard wasn’t working initially beyond some kind of hdmi issue. Fortunately I had a couple of other options to try regarding monitors/tvs. …

Hi, won’t flash to card, file corrupted. Thanks.

Updated Balena and writes to sd card ok. But same result , this time I get a series of + followed by [C and cannot write any text at all via usb keyboard. Therefore can’t proceed with setup.

The 23 /11 img file matches, but that didn’t work when using with the pi 3. The other img file doesn’t match the sha above. It keeps returning a number ending …cb126d6c408. thanks

Yes, it’s expected for the other version to have a different number - each different file should return a different hash. So this means that the image file was downloaded successfully to your computer, only remaining suspects would be the flashing process and the SD card itself. I don’t have reason…

Hi, I’ve switched to a raspberry pi 4 (it’s not the pi version though) . The problem , I think , is to do with hdmi. On the screen i was using the text was not appearing , on a television screen it just appears at the bottom of the screen , so I could log in and do the install and then startx to ge…

Good progress! Does the screen work OK once the graphical environment is up? Hmm, I haven’t encountered such screen / HDMI issues myself, I guess you could look through the configuration options for video / HDMI: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/video.md Keep in m…
