Public bug reported: I'm using Fiesty Herd 5 on a vaio vgn-s1xp and this is what I get from the kern.log:
Mar 8 08:42:15 gvaio kernel: [ 34.104000] sonypi: Sony Programmable I/O Controller Driver v1.26.

Fn keys were working correctly in Edgy ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- In Fiesty sonypi module is initialised without support for fn keys https://launchpad.net/bugs/90708 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
