Keyboard doesn't do anything in Kodi. Should I do something in settings to activate the keyboard?

In case someone else has this problem, here is the solution: Some keyboards are being detected as joystick in linux.
My keyboard A4Tech G800V is one of them.
As GDPR-2 said (then removed?) in his post, I had to make a udev rule to prevent my keyboard being detected as a joystick.

1. Downloaded 51-these-are-not-joysticks.rules file from GitHub - denilsonsa/udev-joystick-blacklist: Fix for keyboard/mouse/tablet being detected as joystick in Linux

2. Copy to /etc/udev/rules.d/51-these-are-not-joysticks.rules

3. Reboot

Keyboard is recognized as USB device but if it is use as keyboard you have to show kernel log.

Reboot box and submit command dmesg | paste.

You mean the problem could be the keyboard is not recognized as keyboard in libreelec?

Does LibreElec have keyboard support?
I connected a USB keyboard and it didn't work, which worked fine in Android.

I only need "yes" or "no"
USB Keyboard is recognized by Linux but it doesn't do anything in LibreElec.

So you thought buying a device with no source code is available was a better idea?

If afl1 had not made the dvb_tv-aml driver then the K series would not be supported right now.

All I wanted was just a TV box!

I didn't even know about openelec or libreelec before I bought KII Pro.

The only reason I'm using libreelec is the tvheadend server.

This discussion doesn't seem to going end but I'll stop here

Thanks for all your efforts.

That's untrue, the KVIM has a DVB-S2 board, are you really going to squabble over $30? that's pocket change to most people.

If you would prefer to choose something flimsy over something quality for the sake of a few $$ then that is your prerogative but going forward none of 'us' developers want to support these Chinese boards any longer, it's too troublesome... just look at how many DTB's there is and none of these manufacturers have worked with us or provided us their kernel source to support these devices.

I don't know anything about KVIM.
I wanted to buy an Odroid C2 at first, but buying an additional USB DVB-S2 tuner didn't seem a good idea.

Quote from adamg

There is a saying if you buy cheap you end up buying twice.

I would not recommend Chinese boards period, pay a bit more and get either a KVIM OdroidC2 or LePotato.

What if one needs DVB-S2? None of these boards have DVB-S2 tuner.
Odroid C2 $60 + USB DVB-S2 tuner around $100 versus something like KII Pro for $70 ?

Hi, what is the recommended file system for a external hdd connected via USB? I have one with NTFS but the cpu/memory usage is very high. Anyone have better luck with ext3 or ext4 ?

I'm using exfat because I'm using the same harddisk in windows too
