Mapping external keyboard PrintScreen












0















I'm running Pop!_OS and using an external CODE keyboard (88-keys) and I want to map PrintScreen and SHIFT+PrintScreen in my external keyboard to the actual PrintScreen key. The internal laptop keyboard sends print screen when the key is actually pressed:



The CODE keyboard has a PrtSc key, but it seems to be sending keycode 183 whereas the internal keyboard sends keycode 99 for the same "PrtSc" key.



Pop!_OS is naturally Ubuntu so perhaps this question is better suited for AskUbuntu, but I truly prefer to hear a more generic approach that is not necessarily tied to Ubuntu.



This is not mission critical, but I'd love to know if this is possible "system wide" (i.e.: not just terminal).



I found out the above codes by using sudo showkey.



Any pointers?
