I've blogged about this yesterday[2], but I am asking for patches from the fedora development community. In this way we can make laptop special keys "just work" for Fedora 8. So, if you've ever seen messages like: atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x97 on isa0060/serio0). atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e017 keycode' to make it known. or you are using a < 2 year old sony or any thinkpad, please read the links and help where you can. The whole process is pretty straightforward, but please email me (off list) if you get stuck and I'll add more explanation where it's needed. With a little help, we can make F8 on a laptop seriously rock [3]. Thanks!
