Keyboard doesn't work enough to do anything useful

[Darthhall]

I bought a raspberry pi 3 about a year ago and installed rune. I've never been able to get it to work with any keyboard I tried. I'm not saying it's a Rune issue, because when I tried another distro I had the same issue. I have tried 3 different keyboard/mice combos but I can only get some of the buttons to highlight. I can't select anything or get into any menus. I'm not sure if the RP3 is bad or if there was some initial setup I missed.

I have the hifiberry digi+ board but have tried it without. No change. My kids have basic RP3s that work with Noobs and the keyboard is fine. I could try one of theirs with Rune but thought I should ask here first before I tried swapping hardware.

Thank you,

Sorry, wrong Rune. The RP3 distro is Roon.

Rune is another thing I'm looking at once I get the RP3 keyboard issue figured out. So this is probably more of a generic Raspberry Pi issue. I thought maybe someone here might have heard or seen something related to my keyboard issue.

Thanks.

Crap. I mixed it up again.

Rune is the distro.
Roon is that other thing I've been looking at.

So I'm confused. When I power up the Pi, I get the Rune interface but I can't go anywhere or set up anything without the keyboard and mouse. So did I screw up the install? I can't get to any settings, so maybe there's a tutorial somewhere that I missed? I thought I followed the steps when I got this a year ago, but I obviously don't know what the heck I'm doing.

I'm using a Mac. I don't have a touchscreen on the RP3.

I did some more research and I think where I went wrong is I didn't wire it to my router for setup and a wireless network hasnt been found. Once I actually get past that part I should be able to follow the rest.

Thank you
