    Not that it matters that much for touch typing but while I can’t switch around keys in my external keyboard I can’t change it in my laptop. Did you simply accept it that keys don’t match your layout and move on?

      If you have to look at the keyboard you’re doing it wrong. My main board had blank keys, my laptop has the qwerty keys, I just don’t look at them

        I don’t have to look at it but sometimes I had to take my laptop to Desktop support for example and they wouldn’t be able to do anything with different layout. I don’t have any company laptop anymore so no longer a problem. Was just wandering.

          If a support person can’t switch keyboard layout, I have absolutely no confidence they can fix whatever’s wrong with my machine.

          Plus I use a tiling window manager with custom shortcuts, my keyboard is a split with blank keys and I use a trackball. I think it’s fair to say changing the keyboard layout would be a tiny step to overcome for anyone trying to use my machine hahahshs
