Lily58 Linux Troubleshooting

Hello! I've just finished building my Lily58 kit and installing the firmware. Everything seems to work ok when connected to my Android phone. However, while I can seemingly pair with my laptop, once connected the keyboard does not type! I am running Arch Linux on a Thinkpad X280, and using bluetoothctl.

Sounds like a pairing issue with your laptop. First, ensure your laptop supports BLE 4.2+. Then, follow the steps in our Keyboard Won't Pair guide. Make sure to clear the bond on both the keyboard and your laptop. Let me know if that helps! If not, tag me again and we can dig deeper.

Do you have only arch or also another os (be it another linux or windows) on this laptop?
