[Bug 1419563] Re: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT
This is not a bug. The keyboard chipset uses a non-standard protocol to support n-key rollover. I wrote a driver for it. You can download it from https://bitbucket.org/Swoogan/aziokbd I wrote a blog post about implementing it, ending with: http://swoogan.blogspot.com/2014/09/azio-l70-keyboard-linux-driver.html Let me know if you have any issues with it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1419563 Title: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1419563/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1419563] Re: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT
I am having the same issue with the same keyboard. I've tried swoogan's driver, installed it using DKMS and also manually. It works if I run the install.sh and then unplug my keyboard and plug it back in, it works fine after that. But as soon as I restart my computer, it's back to not working. I have to run the install.sh again and then unplug the keyboard and plug it back in. Is there a way to make the driver stick? Or a script I can have run at startup that will run the install.sh and somehow refresh the usb port it is plugged into? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1419563 Title: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1419563/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1419563] Re: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT
Ok I was able to finally resolve this in Linux Mint 17.2 Not sure exactly what change fixed this but I did as follows (after swoogan's automatic installer failed) Created a file /etc/modprobe.d/usbhid.conf in which the only line I put in was: options usbhid quirks=0x0c45:0x7603:0x0007 Created a file in /etc/default/grub.d/ named aziokbd.conf Contained the line: options usbhid quirks=0x0c45:0x7603:0x0007 Copied this file to the etc/default directory Copied it to etc/grub.d directory as well (Not sure of the last two items helped or not, but I did it just in case) Finally added : GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='usbhid.quirks=0x0c45:0x7603:0x7' Directly to the Grub conf file located at: etc/default/grub.cfg *I believe it mentioned this in his instructions, but I was thrown off by the missing .cfg after grub. I assumed it was a folder etc/default/grub Ran sudo update-grub and restarted. Now my perixx 1800 keyboard works.

I had the same problem with a Perixx PX-1800 keyboard on Linux Mint 17.2, I used swoogan's driver and it fixed it perfectly! :) Thanks a lot! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1419563 Title: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1419563/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1419563] Re: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT
I'm not sure there's a lot we can do - you can't re-map the keys (the obvious workaround) because they're sending identical codes. A quick google for "sonix usb keyboard linux" gives a number of similar/duplicate issues, with no resolution. a) Try a different kernel version - this could be a regression on the kernel you're using, maybe try up/downgrading it. b) Return the keyboard? (not sure this is possible, but I'd attempt to if it is) and buy a different one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1419563 Title: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1419563/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1419563] Re: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT
First of all, thank you so much my new heros swoogan and finally strangenetworks - I (presently) solely registered to express my gratitude!! As a real newbie newbie I got me linux mint 18.3 cinnamon recently, keyboard is a SL-6432-BK Lucidis. I had (almost) the same trouble as strangenetworks, installing swoogan's driver didn't succeed neither with DKMS nor manually, only difference to strangenetworks was that running the install.sh and then to unplug/plug the keyboard didn't work here. I still tried strangenetworks approach and getting my keyboard running worked as you described it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1419563 Title: Keyboard CTRL, ALT and SUPER keys binded as SHIFT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1419563/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
