Thanks for your keymap! I translated it to the current hwdb format
that systemd uses these days, and committed:

I commented that back in. On all screenshots of the keyboard that I
found it does look like a "refresh/reload" key (circular arrow), and
that seems to be the best match. Of course it's entirely possible that
some applications don't support that key, but hopefully some do.

Indeed there is no such key symbol, so I left it commented out.

I guess that applied to the "refresh" key, no the fullscreen key?

Thanks,
