[Bug] Keycodes for Alt and OS are swapped

[blacktrub]

Describe the Bug

Hello, I flash my keyboard with bastardkb/charybdis/4x6/blackpill firmware, but have a problem that my keycodes are swapped, for example KC_LALT and KC_LGUI, but the biggest problem is the KC_LGUI doesn't work at all.

I have tried to to reset my EEPROM as suggested in this issue and tried to press CG_NORM, but it didn't help.

Adding GUI_ON and press it helped me to bring my KC_LGUI button back alive, but I have the same problem when I unplug my keyboard.

I have tried to flash it with Linux (qmk tool) and Mac OS (qmk toolbox), but nothing changed.

Additional Context?

Have you tried multiple computers?

Yes, I have tried Mac OS laptop and Linux PC

Could it be OS specific problem?

If it moves with the keyboard, that's indicative of the problem being the keyboard. There should be a way to clear the eeprom, or someone built the firmware with strange defaults.

I found how to print EEPROM config and there is what I found there

I have tried to reset EEPROM, but the output stays the same

Any idea how could I change it permanently? I mean this one .no_gui: 1

I have solved my problem by changing EEPROM_DRIVER to value vendor in rules.mk

It seems like the problem was the wrong type of EEPROM driver.
