Hi, Fedi folks, how can I disable a certain output from a faulty keyboard? It constantly triggers screens brightness on and I wanna get rid of it till I buy another keyboard.

I run: xev -event keyboard command and get the below (see attachment).

I can try to disable 'keycode 8' it requests mapping with:
xmodmap -e 'keycode 8='

But as I understood it's kinda combination of several keys/commands so a bit cautious not to mess up the things 🤔

Thanks in advance 🙏

Nope, xmodmap -e 'keycode 8=' does not do the stuff, it just gives "bad keycode input line" error :(
