Hello,

I just installed linux on a I5 mac (2012, now with 16gb memory)..

Now I cannot delete mails, there is no delete button, and when searching internet, they say, the backspace will work as delete, but not in thunderbird ...

To work fast, I need a button to throw mails away ...

Thanks,


I lookup up

and find this

4. Using the dpkg-reconfigure Command

The dpkg-reconfigure command is another option for changing the keyboard layout in the console:

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration


But choosing apple macbook keyboard didn't help me ...

Then I find this ...

"Thanks, Fn-Delete works in Ubuntu too :) but after hunting around I finally found the FreeCAD user config file in /Home/.FreeCAD/. I guess these simple text files are platform independent as replacing the file on Ubuntu with the Mac config brings over all the Mac FreeCAD preferences including having the Delete key function :) ."

Of course I know about keyb remapping, but how? Multiplex del and bs on the bs ?

Thanx, we are getting closer!
