Hey,

Sorry for my very late reply to this, It somehow slipped past me at the time.

I have tested it today with the 0.9.0 install image, the keyboard still
doesn't work

Yes.

The full output of lsusb on the installation image is:

Bus 001 Device 008:  ID 05ac:828f Apple, Inc.
Bus 002 Device 002:  ID 05ac:8406 Apple, Inc.
Bus 002 Device 001:  ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 005:  ID 05ac:0291 Apple, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 004:  ID 0a5c:4500 Broadcom Corp. BCM2046B1 USB 2.0 hub
(part of BCM2046 Bluetooth)
Bus 001 Device 009:  ID 04d9:0169 Holtek Semiconductor, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 003:  ID 0951:1665 Kingson Technology
Bus 001 Device 001:  ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub


NB: one of the apple devices will be the trackpad, another probably the
webcam.

I suspect so too although I'm not entirely sure.
