I’m running fedora with gnome. Has anyone had any success remapping the copilot key to something useful with this combo?
If you need a GUI tool, I use Input remapper: https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper Very straightforward to set it up, it’s available via dnf.
Fellow lemming hirak99 has a tool for that as well which should have better performance, but no GUI: https://github.com/hirak99/keyshift no prebuilt for Fedora unfortunately
Thanks, that did the trick.
In X you can use xev to investigate keycodes. Idk about Wayland, but it would surprise me if there’s nothing for that yet.
You will loose your mind, but wayland version of xev is called wev.
It’s available in a lot of distros: https://pkgs.org/download/wev
🤯 😆
Confirming mind lost
It’s just a key, right? I have Super+H remapped to open HuggingChat on my laptop, you could remap the Copilot key to that. Or Jan, if you want something local, which I have mapped to Super+J
Wut but microsoft co-pilot its got all the features you need like watching your screen!! And
AI productivityspyware.Me and a bud went to best buy recently and were looking at arm laptops, they look pretty rad. Minus the window stuff of course, myself and my friend pointed out how stupid the co-pilot key was. Like who is actually going to use it??? It just seems like a extra key im going to accidentally press, the equivalent of activating bixy!! NO BIXY NO STFU I DIDNT SUMMON YOU!!! I was turing on my phone!!!
Also i gotta ask is your new laptop running arm assuming it has a co-pilot key? And if so how has it been? Ive been looking into an arm laptop, but its gota run linux well. I currently have a t440p running gentoo and librebooted but the battery only lasts about 3-5 hours depending on the websites and it would be amazing to get gentoo on snapdragon laptops the battery life would be sooooo much better!
Lol this is exactly me. My phone has a Bixby button on the side. It would be really cool if I could map the button to something but all I can do is turn it off
It’s not a ARM laptop. It’s a dell inspiron 16 with a amd processor. Everything worked out of the box with fedora even the fingerprint reader so I"m pretty happy with it.
good to hear the fingerprint sensors works!! i rarely hear of people using them on linux
It’s just triggering Super+C under the hood, you could definitely assign it to a global shortcut with Gnome’s keyboard shortcuts. You could probably also get it to work like whatever key should be there (ctrl?) with a little more effort.
