It's definitely not the mouse. Mouse works on my MacBook. What's strange is the mouse infrared light doesn't even come on on the RPi and I am using a wall PSU 5v 2500mA. Going to test the same mouse and KB on the RPi with a diff OS.
When I plug in a USB pen drive it detects it and it shows on the desktop but can't do anything with it since M/KB don't work

Just to report this does boot on my RPi Zero 2W, and fast - it takes about 6 s from power-up Unfortunately as noted USB mouse and keyboard are not ercognised (I can however see a mouse pointer, but it's stuck top left corner of the screen). Still, it's great to see Wanderer up and running on a RPi!
Ideally, I'd like you to test the following scenarios:
* Boot with both a mouse and keyboard connected.
* Boot with only a mouse connected.
* Boot with only a keyboard connected.
* Boot with neither connected, then hot-plug them after the system has booted.
And, if you know this, report if it is a low or full speed device.
Both - keyboard popup appeared and keyboard works but no mouse popup at first but does are multiple removals/reinsertions and mouse now active and mouse cursor works.
Only mouse - like above no initial popup but popups work after removal/reinsertions - mouse works and cursor moves
Only keyboard - no initial popup but popups work after removal/reinsertions - keyboard works now
Neither - keyboard / mouse works after being plugged in with popups for each
Think they are all low, and yes Trident shows them as low
FYi, HDMI and plugin audio works and VideoCore HDMI resolution can be changed

If you want, you can also try out the Wi-Fi driver. It's called bwfm.device (just select it from the list).
The setup should be the same as for any other Wi-Fi driver.
I guess there is no network software that makes it very useful though, but at least you can verify if you get an ip address or not.
In the latest build from August 9th, I found new .dbt files with the newer Raspberry Pi model numbers in their names, "4, 5, 500." Does this mean AROS will support the newer models?
Do you think AROS will support this? I mean the touchpad, because I think the keyboard does? https://ebay.io/m/bh49a3
It would be nice to have a laptop on the Pi
My test results on the RPi 3B+, NB090826:
- I can see Wanderer and use system programs!! )))
- To see the Wanderer screen with icons, I have to close two console windows
- The official Raspberry Pi mouse works fine, as does another, less proprietary mouse
- The official Raspberry Pi keyboard causes the mouse pointer to freeze after about 10 seconds of being plugged into the USB port, or about 10 seconds of clicking the mouse if the computer was started with the keyboard plugged in
- The official Apple keyboard works correctly
It's amazing that there's a working AROS on ARM If only there were Hollywood, something would get written...

Well!!! how about the RPi 400? but I'll let the amazing person who did most of the heavy lifting behind this...
Just tested successfully working KB and Mouse on a 3B as well as a RPi 400. More news to come soon...

Another developer, Jonx, has been working on Raspberry Pi 4 support, and it is now booting. Proper USB support should be ready in a couple of days.
There’s no audio, networking, or graphics driver support yet, apart from a framebuffer driver.
The plan is to make the port stable across the Pi 2–4, for both ARM and AArch64 with working networking, audio and 3D graphics.
If possible, Pi 5/500 support will follow after that.
@bsek
Incredibly good news! Thank you.
Can we also expect all the contributed programs, compiled for the Arm64 architecture?
