I've removed the Purism lines as above from the /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb and restarted but still getting hash\tilde for the backslash\pipe key.

@chris.lamb, sorry, did not now whom to assign it to, so feel free to reassign to Jonas or Matthias.

@jonas.smedegaard Can you try with manually removing:

lshw reports motherboard as "product: Librem 13 v2" and "version: 2.0", and firmware as "version: 4.6-a86d1b-Purism-4" and "date: 06/29/2017".

Librem 13 US models have a problem with their keyboard EC firmware, causing the pipe key to give incorrect scan code.

@chris.lamb Let's hand it over to Mak?

I'll once again raise my point regarding "Freedom harm" tagged issues. According to https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.en.html:

These are actually two issues, I realize this now, sorry.

@stefannagy, that's interesting, I did use ArchBang (Arch based live system) before installing Parabola. And after leaving the laptop shutdown overnight, bluetooth is now not working.

I am currently on Parabola GNU/Linux which is a Libre distro. Bluetooth working fine on Librem 15v3.

Thanks for reeporting. Don't know how this slipped through.

@francois

Fixed.

Yes, there was a typo. :)
