Armbian 24.5.1 Noble XFCE not responding to keyboard, failed to execute default Web Browser

[A9]

On Tinkerboard S, I installed Armbian 24.5.1 Noble XFCE to mmc and tried again with an SD card after having trouble.

 

The desktop does not respond to 2 different keyboards I have tried. If I use a mouse to open Terminal, the keyboards do work in the Terminal.

 

If I try to open Web Browser in the applications menu, I get a window saying "Failed to execute Web Browser. Input/output error."

 

apt update and apt upgrade do not fix the problem.

re: Web Browser: "snap install chromium" fixed the issue.

 

re: Desktop not responding to keyboard: I thought we used to be able to open the Applications menu by pressing the Windows key, and I thought we could open a terminal by pressing ctrl+alt+t.

Can anyone confirm if those should work?

What you are describing sounds like standard gnome desktop behavior.  I don't think all desktops have that same default behavior.  You said above you installed xfce desktop not gnome.

No need to use snap version as 

sudo apt install chromium

also works.
