IntelliJ shortcut and keyboard layout
I recently purchased an HP Specter 13 on which I installed GNU / Linux (archlinux). Then I installed intelliJ. Everything seemed fine until I tried the shortcut.
I'm on an Azeri keyboard. I have configured the system layout so that I can enjoy the correct layout. When I type the letter "a" I have "a" and so on. But with IntelliJ, when typing, the reverse engineered kb layout is "azerty", but with shortcut IntelliJ will convert the layout "qwerty".
Example: to select all the text we do ^ A. But instead I get ^ Q even though the letter "a" is recreated as "a" when I code.
I don't know this, since for example A works fine in my web browser. I doubt it can come from hardware, but who knows.
PS: Whether it is intelliJ 13 or 14, the problem is the same.

Finally I found a solution by forcing the keyboard layout with the "setxkb" utility.

It seems that doing this through my environment Destop (Cinammon) only partially does it. This was also a mistake.
So, I decided to move on to something more basic like awesome and bspwm , where everything doesn't magically come, as you have to configure everything yourself.
