I have been researching a lot about this and I cannot seem to find any useful information about this topic, what so ever.
I have now been using Ubuntu in one week, and have gotten pretty confident with almost everything. Except keyboard layout and shortcuts. If you know a tutorial or a documents explaining keyboard shortcuts in Ubuntu or linux in general, can you please list it? I use a Mac Book Pro with a Norwegian keyboard, and I have several questions about this:
Is there a program for having a consise list of absolutely all keyboard shortcuts, and be able to change them?
How do I use my fn keys? (fn button doesnt do the job for some reason)
How can I use my alt+letter-key-or-number-key or alt+shift+letter-key-or-number-key to get fancy characters. (Like I do on Mac OS X)
How can I swap cmd and ctrl key system wide?
Also I really want to be oriented around this subject, since this is the only thing holding me back on Ubuntu, so if there exists some in-depth material on this, it would be great.
Also, if there exists some programs or material out there making it easier with Mac hardware I would enjoy that.
Sorry if my questions seems vague.
Thank you very much
Simon
