10:40:43 <Diablo-D31> raccct38: those keysyms only exist on osx
10:41:49 <Diablo-D31> and with fn in particular, osx sends something to the keyboard to say "hi, Im a mac", to get it to emit fn presses naked (ie, so fn double tap does spotlight siri activation)
10:42:55 <Diablo-D31> kmonad only exposes those keysyms when built for osx; I personally think its a mistake
10:43:41 <Diablo-D31> like, yes, they wont work on non-osx, but make it a valid keymap and just emit a warning on start that they only work on osx
10:44:34 <Diablo-D31> so yeah, until thats fixed (if its ever fixed, I think the author doesnt think its something that should be fixed), just have a keymap that doesnt refer to those
10:49:01 <Diablo-D31> since you're on linux, use xev to figure out what the x11 name of keysyms are; fn I think is the only key that will never work
10:51:32 <Diablo-D31> btw, linux *does* know how to do "f keys press f keys" signal, https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/121395/
10:55:31 <Diablo-D31> oh, things may have changed since I last looked
10:55:49 <Diablo-D31> https://github.com/free5lot/hid-apple-patched a hacked version of the hid-apple linux driver that enables a lot more functionality
12:31:48 <Solid> Diablo-D3: you're free to submit a PR that changes this
13:33:54 <Diablo-D31> I think I saw one already
