Some keys with default value

Open lcoroneldiaz opened this issue 11 years ago • 5 comments

Hi, thanks for create this app for all who have Apex keyboard.

  • Some keys have default values. Example: M6: Sleep my computer, MX8: Open Internet.
  • Default colors on labels: L1, L2, L3, L4 don't work.
  • M9, M10, M11, M12, L1, L2, L3, L4 works like one key only.

I am newbie in Ubuntu, but I would like to uninstall apexctl at the moment. I only need delete apexctl from sbin/local?. What I should learn for improve with you this tool?

Thanks again.

As long as I haven't made some grave error, sudo make uninstall should uninstall it. The other guys can help you better than I with the other problems.

ApexCtl only makes the extra macro keys visible to the OS. That means you will have to use some external program to assign actions to these keys. If you use standard Ubuntu, then you should be able to find system settings where you can bind the keys to actions you want.

Thank for your reply. I will install apexctl in another computer for learn to use this. In my main computer I need to uninstall apexctl temporarily. I have apexctl files on: ~/Downloads/Apexctl-master = ~/Descargas/ApexCtl-master

So I executed: coroneltc@UbuntuDesktop:~/Descargas/ApexCtl-master$ sudo make uninstall

But I got this error: ./apex-reset /bin/bash: ./apex-reset: No existe el archivo o el directorio (File or directory does not exist) make: *** [disable] Error 127

I got this error: [[ whoami = "root" ]] #remove binary, scripts, and udev rules rm -f
/usr/local/sbin/apexctl
/usr/local/sbin/apexctl-resethub

mv /etc/X11/Xmodmap.bak /etc/X11/Xmodmap make: *** [uninstall] Error 1

I rebooted my computer and now I can use L1, L2, L3, L4 again. Thanks.
