minus-squaredeliriousn0mad@feddit.itlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 months agoThat’s a great workaround, could you share the command?
minus-squareISOmorph@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up2·8 months agoThe command itself isn’t complex: YDOTOOL_SOCKET="$HOME/.ydotool_socket" ydotool key 28:1 28:0 The hard part is getting ydotool to run on boot for your user (no sudo). I had to create a bash script to run on login with the following line: ydotoold --socket-path="$HOME/.ydotool_socket" --socket-own="$(id -u):$(id -g)" It’s a bit hacky but it works.
