PPKB certain keys not working after kernel update

Have you tried the user space driver?  I attempted to use it but ran into problems so will give it another go when I have some time.  For now I just bring up the on screen keyboard in sway when I need a symbol.

I haven't because I don't think you can use both? Maybe I'm wrong on that. I essentially just downgraded my kernel because it ruined the use of the keyboard for me. I read in Megis blog that you can just make a keymap but I tried and couldn't make any progress towards it. I also tried asking in the Matrix chats and didn't get any response from anyone, so I'll probably stay on this kernel version until I can figure that out, or someone can help with it.
