For the iso variant: localectl --no-convert set-keymap mod-dh-iso-us
localectl set-x11-keymap us 105 colemak_dh_iso For the ansi variant, switch to 104 and edit iso to ansi

Thanks. Just localectl set-keymap mod-dh-ansi-us works.

Btw how did u find the name . Coz I couldnt find any ref online.

Thanks again

Oh and fyi you'll probably need the second command too if you ever use x11, iirc set-keymap doesn't convert properly so you need to set it manually localectl set-x11-keymap us 104 colemak_dh

Oh ok. Follow experts advice.

Btw if ever find related article, could pls pass ghat here

Yeah i don't think i had an article, just some redhat documentation and the regular localectl help page, and a couple of hours.

Probably duckduckgo, it was a while back.
