HHKB Pro2 autoconfigured in Linux distribution

[Thanatermesis]

I have just added the support (for the next build 1.8.9) of Happy Hacking Keyboard Pro 2 in Elive (a linux distribution), it is autodetected and directly configured to a better "more intuitive" keymap distribution (it can be disabled too), my configuration for the $HOME/.Xmodmap used is:

keycode 86 = less
keycode 82 = greater
keycode 63 = Left
keycode 112 = Down
keycode 97 = Up
keycode 98 = Prior
keycode 99 = Right
keycode 100 = Home
keycode 102 = End
keycode 104 = Next
keycode 103 = braceleft bracketleft
keycode 105 = braceright bracketright

Maybe you can enjoy about this configuration if you own one of these keyboards

On this way, the arrow default keys are now (with Fn) h,j,k,l  and they are now used by: Left = Home, Right = End, Up = PagUp, Down = PagDown.
Also, the bottom keys to these ones (i don't type his characters because it can change depending of the layout used) are used for { } [ ]

There's more than 1 week that i have it but with this remaping its a lot nicer to work now

Note: is required the 2º switcher set to ON, also I have these others switched to ON: 2,3,4,5

Nice. I am running ubuntu 8.04 and will give it a try. I was thinking of doing the same for hjkl but adjusted to the default layout. But since you did all of the heavy lifting I will give it a try and let you know how it works out.

I actually love the default mapping for the arrow keys.  There is no way I can reach "h" with my right index finger while holding  the Fn key down with my right pinky.  The default mappings work much better for me.

I guess that's to be used with left thumb Fn key.

[bigpook]

no doubt, I was very happy when I determined that you could have a Fn key on the left hand side. It made the HHKB more usable for me.

[Thanatermesis]

Correct, with the Fn key of the left side

Btw, the new ISO is actually uploaded with this support

By the way i have MUCH MUCH improved my configuration, you can see the entire details (image of layout included) in:
