If you are having issues with the keyboard not working. Using an extension board like this will allow you to plug in usb devices without taking out your keyboard. (shameless plug “This is my store”):

> **[uConsole USB Expansion board by uConsole USB Hub on Tindie](https://www.tindie.com/products/mattconn24/uconsole-usb-expansion-board/)**
>
> USB hub designed to extend the I/O of the Clockworkpi uConsole.
