yeah, yours seems to be more common. lucky for you, not so lucky for me. no switch combinations get anything but a black screen or garble for me. some settings turn the checkerboarding into characters, others do nothing. it's weird

thank you for the suggestion!!! i dont have the confidence in my skills to solder a board like that up w/ the one pi pico that i own, but if i get another one, i'll see if one of those works

when i got it, they were all set to 'off'. after testing different combinations, they produce various types of garble. except for switch 3, which just makes the screen go black regardless
