       When you get a new laptop, and install arch, but the media keys are all fucked up because they have ID's higher than 255 and X server is 8-bit for some reason... So you have to use evdev to test the keys individually for the hardware "scancode," then xmodmap -pke to list all the software *key*codes and then you have to manually scroll through the 255-8 (for some reason) keycodes and their functions to find the right ones you want. Then you have to use setkeycodes [scancode] [keycode] to rebind them manually HOWEVER you have to subtract 8 from the keycode number because for some reason beyond human comprehension the kernel decides to add 8 to the keycode.wheezesthis is such a windows-tier problem my lord
