According to rpi-eeprom-update under RaspiOS, my Pi4 has the latest production (= "critical") firmware:
tingo@silent-pi4:~ $ sudo rpi-eeprom-update
BCM2711 detected
VL805 firmware in bootloader EEPROM
BOOTLOADER: up-to-date
CURRENT: Thu 03 Sep 2020 12:11:43 PM UTC (1599135103)
 LATEST: Thu 03 Sep 2020 12:11:43 PM UTC (1599135103)
 FW DIR: /lib/firmware/raspberrypi/bootloader/default
VL805: up-to-date
CURRENT: 000138a1
 LATEST: 000138a1

Do I need something newer than that (from STABLE or BETA)? Looking at the release notes, they talk about USB MSD, not anything about usb devices like keyboards and mice.

Will that give me a working local (ie. usb) keyboard?
