VoodooPS2-Chromebook

This is a modified version of VoodooPS2 for Chromebooks running MacOS. It enables keyboard backlight control and maps the top row keys to the following:

On Keyboard Mapped to
Back arrow key Previous track
Forward arrow key Next track
Refresh key Play/Pause
Full screen key F4
Show open windows key F5
Brightness down key Brightness down
Brightness up key Brightness up
Mute key Mute
Volume down key Volume down
Volume up key Volume up
  • F4 Can be mapped to Full Screen in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts
  • F5 Can be mapped to in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts

Keyboard backlight brightness control is controlled with left ctrl + left alt + "comma" and "period" keys.

SSDT-KBBL.aml is required for keyboard backlight brightness control.

The mouse and trackpad kexts have been removed from the build as they are not found in Chromebooks.
