reTerminal user buttons not visible after upgrades

Hello Liu, thank you for your help. I have reinstalled the driver following the instructions exactly, but same result of no front buttons.

So I tried some experiments. Firmware version is latest 1.8 confirmed by running i2ctransfer -y 1 w1@0x45 0x97 r2 with response 0x01 0x08.

  • Seems to contain 2022-06-19 image below

32bit 2022-06-19-Raspbian-reTerminal.img

  • Like brick, or not boot very far at all
  • attempted flashing 3 times to be certain

32bit 2021-06-02-Raspbian-reTerminal.img

  • image boots
  • front buttons work and exist as /dev/input/event0 gpio_keys
  • ran dtoverlays script, no obvious errors, rebooted
  • no front buttons
  • apt upgrade
  • still no front buttons
  • ran dtoverlays script again (to be certain), rebooted
  • still no front buttons?

32bit 2023-02-01 official raspberry pi os lite (my preferred setup)

  • image boots
  • no hardware support (as expected)
  • ran dtoverlays script, rebooted
  • hardware works but no front buttons
  • apt upgrade
  • no front buttons

I am not able to get a working configuration yet
