Following the example in the docs

~/.ratpoisonrc

# Setting the escape key to the Windows key
escape Super_L

works fine on one machine. On another however it refers to the Fn key. Both are laptops by the same manufacturer. One difference is one has the Win key to the right and Fn to the left while the other has them swapped.

How to use the Win key on the second laptop instead of Fn?

  • This has little do with your WM. Assuming your OS is the same the problem is either the keyboard driver in the kernel has the keys swapped and/or you are missing a udev to remapp the keys yourself. In either case you can check what X/the kernel thinks you are pressing with xev/evtest.
