Im a total child in terms oft Linux distros. Since im sick of Microsoft i decided to switch my gaming completely to Linux (Xbox to Tower with bazzite, switch to steamdeck). Im quite happy that i installed the distro by my self and found the place where i was able to change the keyboard layout. Because i want to play in my livingroom form the couch i got a bluetooth keyboard. The mouse i already have connected perfectly the keyboard didnt. I tried finding a solution online but soon realised that i have to learn to read the Linux lingo.

Can please someone teach me or point me in the right direction were i can learn the basics. Treat me like i know nothing about distros (because i dont) and PC (because i barely do).

This is also to try the Linux community. Show me what you got.

    The arch wiki is indeed excellent

    It can get very in-depth though, sometimes more so than you need when just starting out learning Linux. So try not to get overwhelmed by it, OP :)

    Also OP, since you’re on Bazzite, you should know that that Bazzite is an immutable distribution, meaning your root file system is read-only. So some of the “advanced tinkering” with system files from arch wiki or random forum posts won’t work the same way.
