<span class="mw-headline">[[File:sail.jpg|center|800x506px|border]]<br />In case your system start directly with the PIN screen as in the picture above, please restart your machine as otherwise the setup configuration is known to not complete properly. If the problem persists, try re-flashing the linux and the sailfish_boot partition (either boot2 or boot3) only.

==<span class="mw-headline">Power key and Esc (On) key</span>==On Sailfish, the Esc (On) key sends the an escape character. To send a power event, use the key combination: Fn + Esc (On). When you boot Sailfish OS for the first time, a few things are initialised and the screen might turn black because of the screen timeout. If that happens, just press Fn + Esc (On) to send a power event and wake up the screen, or simply close your Gemini and open it again. To power off the unit, press and hold Fn + Esc (On) for a few seconds until the poweroff menu appear on screen. ==Known Bugs - Sailfish 3.0 Beta Community Edition==* <span class="mw-headline">Esc (On) sends the power keyinstead of ESC<br /></span>
* Volume bar gets stuck on screen when adjusting with 3 fingers
