map2 VS gamemode

https://github.com/shiro/map2 - another neat remapper program. more complex and no gui but more scriptable

I've also used a remapper tool called map2 but for a different use-case. Map2 documentation links to some of the scan codes though which could be helpful if you end up having to map the function keys to something... not really sure how those work but I've used it to map multimedia keys on a logitech k400 htpc keyboard before.

Maybe map2 can do some things you need.

As a temporary workaround and probably a long shot: but if not hw related and you are getting the keypresses but they're being ignored... maybe you could get away with some keyboard remapping apps? Maybe map2 or kbct

A linux alternative to AHK I made called map2 lets you do that easily, although there are other remapping projects as well.

for number 3: One way to bind mouse (keyboard, controller, etc.) keys similar to AHK is map2. It's significantly easier to use than Xorg keybindings and lets you do application specific bindings. Your can bind keys, key sequences and even complex actions such as scripts.

I'm the author of map2 that lets you map keys to other keys, sequences and complex actions like running a script. I haven't tried it with wiimotes (but I will when I find some time) so one would have to inspect which key events are emitted in order to remap them.

I'm the author of map2 which allows you to write simple scripts to remap buttons (incl. mouse), also you can do so per application. It's very flexible, but might require some programming skills, I recommend reading the docs and check the examples folder (there is a logitech mouse example too).

Mapping thorough X11 might not work everywhere and it's clunky. I'm the author of map2, it lets you do AHK-style key remapping and scripting on evdev level (meaning it's below X11 or wayland), so it works everywhere.

According to the GitHub page:

A performance optimiser, GameMode by Feral Interactive. It’s not required for anything to launch (unless maybe you’ve configured something to run via gamemoderun and GameMode isn’t actually installed on your system!)

EDIT: Nevermind, fixed it. Just create a file called gamemode.ini in $HOME/.config/, and copy inside this.

Thinking about running "gamemode" https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode.

oh, you're referring to gamemoderun.

The ArchWiki has some tips that can help tuning your system to squeeze more performance: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/gaming

This launcher does help too: https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode

On top of that, you can use a patched kernel like: https://xanmod.org/

You can check support status for games here: https://www.protondb.com/

If you run games via Proton with DXVK, you can use the environment variable DXVK_HUD=1 to show a HUD with an FPS meter. Some others prefer mangohud.

Setting your CPU frequency scaling governor and GPU to performance mode also helps.

Here's a link, looks like they are indeed working on it: https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode/pull/416

Didn't include your OS but if you are on Ubuntu people reported before missing some 32-bit libraries as seen here https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode/issues/254
