Linux 6.14 Adds Support for Microsoft Copilot Key
2025-01-24
The Linux 6.14 kernel introduces support for the Microsoft Copilot key found on new laptops pre-loaded with Windows. This key, used to launch Microsoft's Copilot AI assistant or similar chatbot software, was previously unmapped in Linux. The update modifies the atkbd keyboard driver, mapping the F23 key to the Copilot shortcut (Meta+Shift+F23). Additionally, Linux 6.14 boasts enhanced game controller support and other input subsystem improvements.
