Auto load on os start

how to auto load on os start? im using ubuntu

[sezanzeb]

should already happen. sudo systemctl enable key-mapper

Great and helpful program. Thank you!

As for this problem, still kinda confused.
Do I have to click "apply" and "Autoload" in a specific order?
Sometimes it will work when ubuntu starts, but sometimes after I change the key mapping, even though it is applied and Autoload, it stops auto-load...

[sezanzeb]

you don't.

activate "autoload" to make it automatically apply when you log in

hit "apply" when you want to apply it right now

@omgmajk you saved my day, I was suffering with the same problem. Maybe this should have been obvious but I missed this config on the UI...

Maybe README could get improved on this?

ps. thanks for this software, this at last allowed me to switch to Wayland.. having no mouse button mappings was a blocker for me :)

Wasn't obvious to me either. Maybe rename it "Auto-apply"?

Maybe rename it "Auto-apply"?

Hm, I guess that makes sense. Anyone else having an opinion on this?

I have the same problem, it doesn't autoload at startup, the command that is provided is not available in my device, key-mapper doesn't exist.

use input-remapper instead of key-mapper

I have tried it before and since you mentioned I have tried again, but no luck.
i get this error when i try input-remapper,

Failed to enable unit: Unit file input-remapper.service does not exist.

Then the installation probably wasn't successful. Try to install it again or try other installation methods. There should be input-remapper.service in /usr/lib/systemd/system

I tried that, but I think I know the reason, first of all everytime I launch the software I have to put sudo password.
I am still in look for the solution. I am new to Linux, so I am still exploring and understanding how things work in Linux.

I had this problem when using the manual build. I switch to it since the fedora package isn't updating constantly, but someone managed to find a work around for this: sudo systemctl enable input-remapper
It worked for me after a restart.
