Switch Fn and Ctrl keys

I've been enjoying my PBP for the past week but I've been wondering if it was possible to switch the Fn and the left Ctrl keys? I've found a few options in the Keyboard->Advanced section but nothing on the Fn key.

I'm going through trying to remap some keys right now myself!

You probably want to use `xmodmap` in the terminal. `man xmodmap` has a few examples of swapping keys.

I decided I wanted to install xev (pacman -S xorg-xev) to see what the keycodes are. But I had to update my mirrors before it would let me do that.

That looked like this:

1. `pacman -f` (this took a really long time)
2. `pacman -Syuu` (to update pacman with the new mirrors
3. `pacman -S xorg-xev` to actually install the thing

Nice, thanks. I'll read through the manual of xmodmap. I'm not sure what you mean by your first pacman command. `-f` does not exist and `-F` needs a target.
