Pitft installed but keyboard isn't working on boot

Post by JazzPanda »

I installed the PiTFT and the PiTFT ready raspbian and the screen seems to be working perfectly but the keyboard and mouse doesn't work. I can't think of anything I did wrong. Any Ideas?

As I suspected. I have observed the exact same behavior with my B+ booted from a B image. I haven't got around to it yet myself, but I think you need to generate a new image for the B+.

So i've tried to generate a new image with not too much success. My programming skills are not very developed, I feel like i'm making sushi with a butter knife. Is there any word on an updated image release for the PiTFT?
