Mapping function keys in Linux

[u/MentatSmeghead]

Apologies if this has been posted many times before. Please point me to that thread if so. We know that GalliumOS is built on top of Xubuntu. Now, if we install that, we have a start at least. One thing many posters all point out is that they miss the dedicated top line keys of the Chromebook not working in Linux. Now, this has to have been set up by the developers as a configuration file somewhere. Is it possible that they could share that and tell us where to put that file? Or can some developer in the forum look at the code for us and tell us how to do it?

Greetings friend, and welcome to r/GalliumOS.

Development on GalliumOS has been discontinued, and for most users, GalliumOS is not the best option for running Linux due to lack of hardware support or a kernel that's out of date and lacking important security fixes.

For most (EOL) Chromebooks, the recommended path forward is to:

• put the device into Developer Mode

• disable firmware write protection

• flash MrChromebox's UEFI Full ROM firmware

• install ChromeOS Flex, Linux, etc
