    Yo! Thanks a lot. It works.

    I tried “colemak-dh” instead of “colemak_dh”, thats why it didnt work. My monkey brain didnt think of using underscore.

    I wanna set it up on login shell too. So i tried

    localectl set-keymap  colemak_dh
    

    But it says Failed to set keymap: Keymap colemak_dh is not installed.

    I tried

    [tomri@arch ~]$ localectl list-keymaps | grep colemak
    colemak
    [tomri@arch ~]$
    

    Thanks in advance

      For the iso variant: localectl --no-convert set-keymap mod-dh-iso-us
      localectl set-x11-keymap us 105 colemak_dh_iso For the ansi variant, switch to 104 and edit iso to ansi
