J720 Linux Keymaps (how to tweak and german layout included)

Hi Timo,

Hmmm......good idea to check.....

Will check and then test again.

If that doesn't work, I will upload file here for you to look at.

Thanks!

Hi!

After boot and login and loadkeys command Us-key.map working in devuan command line or mcedit (nano too probably) except right curly bracket is fn+0 combo, left and right bracket are fn +8 and fn+9 ---however once I run "startx" I lose function keys altogether...this is where X1 keymap is needed????

Hi Joval,

yes, X needs a different keymap. Its the one Mark currently is working on and you would load it with the „xmodmap“ command from xterm. Once working you can add it to the xinitrc script in /etc/X11/xinit

Cheers

Hi guys,

Sorry, been very busy with other matters, but will try to fix the keymap for X either today or tomorrow and then upload both.

Best,

Hi Timo,

Still crazy busy at work....probably for another week..

So, uploading the keymap files here.

The us-j720-key.map file is working well. So, everyone that needs map for US keyboard in console can use this file.

The test.Xmodmap file needs fixing per prior post.

If possible, Timo, please review and correct file. Then we can test.

Thanks!

Mark

Hi Timo,

Any luck with the keymap for X?

Thanks,
