So the symptoms are: Only the Super key doesn't work on your system, even at the kernel level. The Super key works on windows. I would conclude it is not the keyboard, but that you have something set that is capturing that key in linux. Do you perhaps have it set as a dead key in your keyboard mapping? That is, you press that key and then press two other keys to get a special character. For instance, on my system pressing my dead key, the windows menu key, and then t and m gives the ™ symbol. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
