So my employer recently got me a new keyboard for my workstation, the EVGA Z20.
I also use a KVM to jump between two Windows PC's, and an Ubuntu MATE PC.
I set it up on a Windows PC using the proper software as well.
The keyboard works perfectly with Windows, but there are a few problems when I switch to Ubuntu.
Namely, some keystrokes aren't recognized while typing, some register as being held down, and then the keyboard eventually disconnects from the PC entirely.
I tried everything I could, from using WINE to install the normal program, to searching for third party software, to searching for some way to modify the existing keyboard driver built into the OS.
I've checked on the EVGA website, and at least with GPU's, they state that they don't support Linux. Other forums haven't turned up any sort of workaround either. I also e-mailed their support team several days ago, but not yet received a response.
So I'm ultimately trying to get this keyboard at base functionality with Ubuntu MATE, and I suspect I may need to learn to write the software myself. That being said, I also have zero experience with that.
If anybody can help me find a way to make this keyboard work, or point me in the right direction to learn how to write the software myself, I would greatly appreciate it!
