I also tried modifying /etc/rc.local directly and
adding the script to Startup Applications as well but with no luck.
When i run it myself it works fine. I am using the latest LMDE version on a laptop with external usb keyboard. (nothing changes to the laptop keyboard either).
Any ideas? Here's the script
*UPDATE* : I Found the solution seconds after posting this... Its a simple option on the keyboard preferences... Although it still bugs me why the script didn't autorun. Any suggestions are welcome.
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
