Hi,
I have a Hp ProBook 450 G3 and recently installed Linux (SuSE 15.5) on it. The keyboard is a German one,
so I used as language "German". This works fine, but the [ shows a 8 and all other "Alt-Gr" keys doesn't work.
So I think I have to use a special keyboard layout. Can anybody help or tell me where to look and place the
keyboard layout file.
Thanks,
Uwe

Apart from a few Workstations, HP provides no support for Linux.
I mention this because with Windows, we can provide links to videos and HP Documents. We can provide links to HP diagnostic apps you can download and run on your PC. We can provide links to HP drivers and to HP BIOS updates, which you can also download and run on your PC. And, nearly everything useful can be done using an application or utility that HP will provide you for free.
For the general population of HP customers trying to use or install Linux, we have NONE of that. No diagnostics. No videos. No downloadable utilities or tools. And, once you get into Linux, you discover that you have to become VERY familiar with the command line to do anything complicated. We have no command line information available from here.
So when I recommend going to the support forum for your Linux distro, it is because THERE is where you will get the amount and kind of support you need.
Not here -- as the first line at the top says.
