FAQ
Key left of Z ( \ | )
How to map the key next to Z to the symbols on \ and | (rather than <>) ?
Choose the alternative international US keyboard layout and variant. The name will depend on you desktop environment:
- English (US, alt. intl.)
- English (US, international AltGr Unicode combining, alternative)
- English (US, alternative internatioinal)
Note: keyboard variants with similar names as the ones above change the upper left key for ` and ~. You have to press that key twice to get the desired char. This happens with the alt-intl variant. Choose the altgr-intl variant (or however it is called in your desktop environment) and it should work as expected.
To set the keyboard layout and variant in the terminal for X-Windows use:
setxkbmap -layout us -variant altgr-intl
The Archlinux Wiki has some good help if you need to tweak your layout further [1]
Key between Fn and Alt (Menu)
How to map the key between Fn and Alt to SUPER / META ?
The initial setup in many desktop environments maps the key between Fn and Alt to MENU. Although the menu key can be useful as well (e.g. spell correction in the browser) many desktop environments and window manager use the Super key for many other useful functions. And users are probably more used to have the META key near Ctrl and Alt.
In X-windows the following command maps the key between Fn and Alt to META and the Caps-Lock key to MENU.
setxkbmap -option caps:menu,altwin:alt_super_win
Set display brightness in the terminal
To set the display brightness in the terminal use this command:
xbacklight -setXX
XX is the percentage (%) of brightness. E.g. for 70% brightness
xbacklight -set70
Get battery % in CLI
As ACPI is not compatible with ARM, to gather the % battery this can be used:
cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity
