M9-M12 has the same keycodes.

Open Zelaf opened this issue 9 years ago • 5 comments

So playing around with the config files and programs, I found out that the M9 to M12 keys are the same keycodes, I wonder if anyone else has had this issue and if anyone knows a way around this.

EDIT: I also noticed I can't find the keycode for M6. Looking for the screen lock on xmodmap, I found out it's not binded either.

This happens when the 90-apex.hwdb file is not installed. Make sure it's installed and active.

Sorry for the extremely late response.... I installed Arch on my main and is dualbooting Windows now but now I can't get Apexctl to work on Arch at all. Tho I did successfully install it which is a start.

looks like there was an abi change in udev. need to change the hwdb file:

change keyboard:usb:v1038p120[02]*

to evdev:input:b0003v1038p120[02]*

I tried editing the file like @gonzote said but still no input in xev.

How do you make sure it is active? It IS installed, but mine is all dysfunctional as well (I'm crafting a complete question but came across
