    the only thing i miss from chromeOS is you could use various key combos
    to use keys you don't have; pgup, pgdn, end, home, delete, etc.

    Anyone else doing this have a fix to get that functionality back?

    I am thinking you should be able to map keys. Don't remember how though. It's been about 20 years since I ran Debian, really any linux, full time other than on headless Raspberry Pi's.

    Don't want to derail your thread but how hard was it to throw Debian on the chromebook? I have a perfectly good Asus that's at least a year beyond Chromebook updates I've been trying to figure out what to do with.
