Cedilla using a Skyloong SK68 (68 keys) keyboard and bluetooth issue

Support GNOME
1

I have done a new clean install of my manjaro linux with the new qonos image (gnome).

I’m from brazil and here we use a lot cedilla (ç or Ç).

The issue is that with the new install I ain’t able to use the cedilla as I’m using on my old installation (pressing the compose ´ + c). I tried a lot of things without success.

The keyboard I’m using: "Skyloong teclado mecânico sk68 rgb,|Teclados| - AliExpress

I found some commands that I can get this information that maybe someone can use to help me:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8 sudo showkey -a
                                                                                                                                                              
Press any keys - Ctrl-D will terminate this program

ć       196 0304 0xc4
        135 0207 0x87
Ć       196 0304 0xc4
        134 0206 0x86
ç       195 0303 0xc3
        167 0247 0xa7

What I have pressed to get the letter:

ć = ´ + c
Ć = ´ + C
ç = ALT (right) + ,

Another issue that I’m having is with the bluetooth. That is something that was working on the first boot but stop after a restart. I think this notebook uses an integrated wireless + bluetooth card.

Go to Gnome Tweaks Tools > Keyboard & Mouse and enable your compose key and select a keyboard shortcut you want. For example compose+’+c gives ć .

Share some output: rfkill list, inxi -Fazy

It’s works like your example but that’s exactly what I want to change. I don’t want to use a compose key to get the ç, I just want to press ´ + c and get the ç.

It’s not possible to change the compose key to anything else other than these options:

Sure, I understand your point, but I don’t want to use the compose key.

Before the new install I was able to use only the two keys: ´ + c without the need to press a compose key, and this is what I want to archive.
