Something seems wrong with dbus and gconf2 on last imgs.
As a workaround you could maybe download an old stable img from dec 2023 for example and dist-upgrade to very last stuff. (I'll try tomorrow)

Oki, so I downloaded & tested a older version from 20231224, now the keyboard symbols and input-settings work. But, now I have other issues:
1. "App. manager" can't update anything, it had multiple sources (of same apparent Devuan? name) that could not be change from its menu, and "apt upgrade" never stops (over a 1000 packages tobe updated, 5 hours wait atm, and only done 50%, oki still on a micro-SDHC).
2. "Mypaint app" is still very slow.

You are welcome to use postmarketOS. I have personally found that in general, linux is linux, i.e. distro-hopping isn't really useful.

On my installation, I disabled suspend, so I did not experience that problem
Anyway, the postmarketOS issue tracker is the best place to report those issues. I've scaled down my postmarketOS work, but if you open issues there, I will look at them when I have some free time.

I think you should wait to get a clean and fast install before running Mypaint and overclock.
BTW i tried to install Mypaint on my device, it took around 2 minutes but something is wrong with icons and i can't run the app. Any tips to get it working ?
