After reading docs and some trial and error, I found out if you do the
changes below in /usr/share/X11/xkb/ and select enlish/GB keyboard
the Think Outside Stowaway Sierra Full Size Bluetooth Keyboard
will mostly work ok (with AltGr instead of the Fn key to get the blue
symbols and compose for accents - I'm french :).
I did not succeed in getting the EIGHT_LEVEL or level5 mode to work
and define more key combos with Fn+key. If any xkb syntax expert
is lurking arount, help welcomed.

Hi,
I have an N800 and a sierra bluetooth keyboard. It looks like the Fn
key of this keyboard is not processed by the keyboard but sent
to the N800 and interpreted as the Menu key, so in practice all keys
that should be accessible using the Fn key as modifier don't work. This
includes F1..F12, PageUp/Down, EuroSign, YenSign, ... so it's
pretty annoying.
It looks like there is lots of interesting keyboard stuff
in /usr/share/X11/xkb/ on my N800, any idea on how to define an adapted
layout? (I assume defining the Fn key as a modifier Hyper_R or something
then adding definitions on the other keys.)
Thanks in advance,
Laurent
