Swapping CTRL + FN #40

Closed obsoleszenz closed 4 months ago

obsoleszenz commented 4 months ago

I'm currently trying to swap the fn and ctrl keys on my framework 13 amd. I was able to map FN to CTRL with ectool raw 0x3E0C d1,d1,b2,b2,w14 but wasnt able to remap ctrl to fn. Is there any trick?

What did you try?

Looked for the SCANCODE_FN which is 0x0ff so i tried ectool raw 0x3E0C d1,d1,b2,b2,w255 which didnt work though. But i just found out that my uefi has an option to swap fn and ctrl, so that works. But am wondering if theres an ec command to do this?

The thing about host command 3E0C is that it requires a key matrix position and a new scancode. Since you are targeting a different key (the one labelled ctrl), you will need to update the two parameters here:

                         .--.--- here
                         v  v
ectool raw 0x3e0c d1,d1,b2,b2,wFF

...to match the row and column (in that order, in hex!) of the key labelled ctrl. You can figure out where that is here.

Instead of "2, 2" that would be "1, c" (row 1, column 12).

ectool raw 0x3e0c d1,d1,b1,bc,wff

But in this case, you should just use the firmware option for it. :)
