    * Use English International with dead keys

    Make both super keys work:

    nano /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pc

    Change:

    key <RWIN> { [ Super_R ] };

    To:

    key <RWIN> { [ Super_L ] };

    Make fn keys secondary:

    - Use windows layout in keyboard (physical key)
    - In the dell keyboard change it in bios POST settings (press F2 to login into bios)
    - Edit /etc/modprobe.d/hid_apple.conf (create if doesn't exist)

    Add:

    options hid_apple fnmode=2

    Execute:

    sudo update-initramfs -u -k all

    - Reboot

    If it doesn't work:

    Try pressing: Fn + X + L for 3 seconds
