ahm-2.10.6 released.

#21 Post by teika »

I here release ahm-2.10.6. The previous versions do not work with kernels >= 5.4, but this new version includes a workaround.

Get the patch againt the upstream 2.10.6, and help yourself.

This version also includes a sample xorg.conf.d file. (But most readers must already have their own one; it's for newcomers.)

All the best.

EDIT:
ahm-2.10.6 provides a workaround for the kernel bug 206929, which was fixed in the kernels 5.6, 5.5.14 and 5.4.29.

I now recommend to switch to a modern tool, namely "interception-tools", together with its plug-in "Dual Function Keys", as I wrote in the first post of this thread.

Best regards.

FYI: The Arch Wiki page Input remap utilities lists similar software"s".

# Count softwares; it'll be very convenient and natural.

Cheers.
