Feeling like a bit of a fossil and not knowing what files do what, or
where things are located. Need to fix an obnoxious problem with a
keyboard and realize I just don't know even how to investigate this
anymore. What are recommended sources for a modern overview of system
files, purposes and organization?
Think my laptop now believes my Logitech keyboard is the default
keyboard. This is bad, because it has a different number of keys and
the mapping is different. This a royal pia. I am typing with a mouse.
Even the space bar doesn't work. Practically it makes a laptop into a
desktop system. I don't even know where to start since a lot of the
Linux cheese moved, in the past 10 years.
System76 Oryx 6 Pro laptop. POPOS 22.04.
Any tips or pointers to well written overviews on the modern
organization would be appreciated. Perhaps I could learn enough to at
least know the correct search terms.
TIA, Bruce
