Key remap on linux. How to remap keyboard keys on linux

Raw

keycode 117 = End

Raw

First identify current keycodes by running xev in the terminal
Create a file in the home directory with name .Xmodmap
Inside of the file, remap the keycode with desired keyName

for me, I waant to replace Next key into End key.

110 Home - HOME
115 End - END
112 Prior - PAGEUP
117 Next - PAGEDOWN

to do ths, I added keycode 117 = End which determines keycode 117 is now work as End key

After typing desired keycode and name accordingly, save the file as .Xmodmap in home direcctory.
then run the command xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap from terminal.

That's all. you are now all set
