From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have this in my hyprland.conf
You list some other variants with
grep -i 'colemak_dh' /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.lst
, there are a few.Yo! Thanks a lot. It works.
I tried "colemak-dh" instead of "colemak_dh", thats why it didnt work. My monkey brain didnt think of using underscore.
I wanna set it up on login shell too. So i tried
But it says
Failed to set keymap: Keymap colemak_dh is not installed.
I tried
Thanks in advance
For the iso variant:
localectl --no-convert set-keymap mod-dh-iso-us
localectl set-x11-keymap us 105 colemak_dh_iso
For the ansi variant, switch to 104 and edit iso to ansiThanks. Just
localectl set-keymap mod-dh-ansi-us
works.Btw how did u find the name . Coz I couldnt find any ref online.
Thanks again
Oh and fyi you'll probably need the second command too if you ever use x11, iirc
set-keymap
doesn't convert properly so you need to set it manuallylocalectl set-x11-keymap us 104 colemak_dh
Oh ok. Follow experts advice.
Btw if ever find related article, could pls pass ghat here
Yeah i don't think i had an article, just some redhat documentation and the regular localectl help page, and a couple of hours.
Probably duckduckgo, it was a while back.
