Cosmo Communicator - Linux / Re: Bad keyboard mapping for some keyboard localizations
« on: February 20, 2021, 04:12:16 pm »
Hi!
I have the same problem with the Norwegian keyboard layout. To be more specific, c, v, b, and n does not work once I have logged in and set the keyboardlayout to no as to the instructions from Planet Computers. I have hooked up an external USB keyboard via the USB-C dock as well and the same keys do not work even then. What is strange is that when the screen locker goes on, I am able to log in with the default password "cosmo", so c works once the screen locker goes on.
Another problem I have is that Fn is interpreted as the Super key which means that the special key combinations with Fn do not work either. Instead I get the menu in KDE opening. If I then hit c, v, b or n, it closes again. If I want the menu to launch Konsole, I can hit Fn and type Ko, but when I get to n, the menu closes.
If I set the keyboard layout back to us (setxkbmap -model planetcosmo -layout us), the problem with c, v, b and n is still there. It also persists if I try to set it back (I obviously cannot type setxkbmap -model planetcosmo -layout no, but I can use the up arrow to find previous commands.)
I just noticed that t does not work either. I am trying to write sudo apt install in Konsole and it doesn't work.
After a reboot it reverts to the US keyboard and things generally works, except the Fn-key combinations and all the Norwegian glyphs (æøå). With my external USB keyboard, I am able to type - and _ in the way they are usually typed on a US keyboard (+ and shift+ on the physical Norwegian layout), but not on the Cosmo since it requires Fn.
I just updated everything (sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade) and the problem is still here. I also tried with dist-upgrade but it does nothing since this is the newest Debian Stable already.
