Description Hans de Goede 2019-07-01 10:07:27 UTC
The soon to be released 5.2 kernel, which is expected to hit Fedora-30 a couple of weeks after release (and then F29 a few weeks later) includes new handling for Logitech wireless keyboards.

Instead of relying on the HID emulation of the receiver, the kernel now enumerates the device behind the receiver. This allows fixing a bunch of keybinding issues where the same Logitech custom HID usages are used in different ways with different models using the same receiver, also see:
https://hansdegoede.livejournal.com/21731.html

This new support relies on userspace to correctly setup the HID-usage-code -> linux key-code mapping, since this may now differ per model. Systemd's master branch's 60-keyboard.hwdb contains mappings for all currently known models. Without this various special-function-keys will stop working when the new driver is used.

Can you please include the latest 60-keyboard.hwdb in the next systemd update for f29+, so that the special-function-keys on these keyboards will work properly when users get the 5.2 kernel as an update?

Hmm, I missed that. Updated keymaps are in rawhide/F31, but not the previous releases.
In the feature, please immediately set POST on bugs which only require taking a patch
from upstream. I try to always include all of those in an update.
