Hey guys, in the last few days my current one has started having some ghosting / unresponsive key issues and I am looking for a replacement.
The current one is a logitech g910 with programmable keys, which sadly don’t work under Linux (I bought the keyboard when I still used windows). Now I know most keyboards with programmable functionality require software on the computer to work, and windows software at that.
Can someone here make a recommendation? I need
- full Linux compatibility
- 3-8 programmable keys
- full layout with numpad
- media / volume controls would be nice to have
- (obviously) mechanical keys with good feedback, I mostly use it for gaming
Thank you in advance 🙂
E: thanks everyone for the useful responses, i landed on a keychron k3 (after some comparing i decided i could do without the numpad). Had to buy it from amazon sadly because their own store is like 3/4 sold out and didnt have the german layout i need in stock.
I’m not sure how closely it satisfies all your requirements, but I have 2 ultimate hacking keyboards, and they serve me well. Open source firmware with clients for Windows Mac and Linux. Once settings are programmed into the keyboard, they work regardless of connected OS.
It’s a 60% keyboard with no numpad… Ymmv.
