[Bug]: Super key unresponsive, even when binds are changed

[BarrenSkies]

Bug Report

Description

Ran this installer on a fresh Manjaro install (dual boot) and the super key does not work. Using an Omen 16 laptop, tried fn+f12 to enable windows key and still didn't work

Steps to Reproduce

1. Fresh Manjaro install
2. Run Hyprland Installer
3. Boot into Hyprland

SUPER key does not function

your report is incomplete

super enter does not open kitty? super ctrl b does not open waybar styles menu or what?

on Manjaro, does it worked? Did you choose a proper kb_layout?

[BarrenSkies]

None of the keybinds containing SUPER work, it seems the key itself is unresponsive. It works fine on Manjaro.

[JaKooLit]

did you choose proper kb_layout????

perhaps you need set your keyboard device in

~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/UserSettings.conf

[BarrenSkies]

Ah sorry, yes kb layout is set to us. By keyboard device do you mean variant? What would I need to set that as? Here's the input settings:

input { kb_layout=us kb_variant= kb_model= kb_options=grp:alt_shift_toggle kb_rules= repeat_rate=50 repeat_delay=300 numlock_by_default=1 left_handed=0 follow_mouse=1 float_switch_override_focus=0

touchpad { disable_while_typing=1 natural_scroll=0 clickfinger_behavior=0 middle_button_emulation=1 tap-to-click=1 drag_lock=0 } }

kb_variant or kb_model

but tbh, I have no idea why the super wouldnt be responsive as installer is not setting or installing anything by default....

I would assume youre not using mac os or apple type keyboard?

Also when I run locatectl it returns --no-convert.

[BarrenSkies]

No, it's a windows keyboard

[BarrenSkies]

I've set it like this, going to try it now. input { kb_layout=us kb_variant=evdev kb_model=pc105 kb_options=grp:alt_shift_toggle kb_rules= repeat_rate=50 repeat_delay=300 numlock_by_default=1 left_handed=0 follow_mouse=1 float_switch_override_focus=0

touchpad { disable_while_typing=1 natural_scroll=0 clickfinger_behavior=0 middle_button_emulation=1 tap-to-click=1 drag_lock=0 } }

[BarrenSkies]

Still didn't work. Honestly no idea what could be going wrong here.

[BarrenSkies]

Ok ran with evdev as the rules parameter instead of variant and that seems to have done the trick. Thanks for helping me out! New to linux so I'm excited to start ricing it out!
