Fujitsu Lifebook keyboard behaving strangely in Fossapup64 9.5

[Tonio]

Hello all,

I am a total Linux newbie and have installed Fossapup64 9.5 on a Fujitsu Lifebook E734 with Intel Core5i, 128 GB SSD, 4 GB RAM on a 20 GB partition. By the way, the Lifebook is certified for SUSE Enterprise Desktop. It used to have Windows 8 on it. I also created a mini partition for the boot flag.
I also installed Freecad 0.18.4 and Libre Office 7.33.
Everything works wonderfully and also quickly, as I had imagined, even if I am still a bit slow with setting up and understanding.

But it doesn't work at all with the Keybourd.
It's a QWERTY keyboard, with an additional Fn and Windows key on the left, an additional menu key on the right and a virtual number pad that is activated with Fn+Num. Otherwise the usual. Fn has even more functions for different characters (fourth assignment of a key e.g. Fn+0 --> ÷) and various functions e.g. key illumination, loudspeaker on/off. But it does not work. Ctrl does not work either but Alt Gr does.

But the main problem is that some letter keys behave quite strangely:
I press j --> "ju" appears
w --> nothing happens
2 --> "w2" appears
k --> "hk" appears
h --> "hk" appears
4 --> "d4" appears
d --> "d4" appears
and some other oddities.

I can't imagine that this is a specific problem in the configuration of exactly these selected keys, but rather a general one, which has its effect on these and a few other letters. There are a total of 10 keys, each of which form a pair with one of the other 9 and, when pressed, always display their own letter and the partner in the same order, as in the example pairs of 4 and d and k and h.

I have configured the keyboard as follows:

Language Layout: de German

Language Variant: nodeadkeys (I also tried T3)

Keyboard Model: fscaa1667g Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo laptop (I tried also PC105)

The last two settings are certainly wrong, but I don't know how to do it correctly and I don't see any way to figure it out myself, because I still lack a lot of understanding. I haven't found anything about it in forums.
Can anyone help me in this?

Many thanks in advance

Ill just make sure you have found the obvious....Menu-.Setup->Keyboard wizard.

You seem to have found the settings provided by Menu-.Setup->Keyboard wizard.

Try to setup using one of the generic keyboard models.

You tried using pc105.

Try pc 101, pc 102, or pc 104.

See if one of them will get the normal keys doing what they should do.
What the key is labeled.

If it gets that much working correctly.

Then the language layout and variant is what you need to adjust.
Those will affect some keys output.

May need to look at setups in the other Menu-.Setup->Keyboard wizard->Advanced configuration
