I've just installed Kubuntu Dapper and here is the run down on the laptop keys supporting state:
hotkey, function, Dapper result Fn+F1, help, none Fn+F2, setup, none Fn+F3, power management scheme toggle, none Fn+F4, sleep, none Fn+F5, display toggle, not tested Fn+F6, Screen blank, works as expected Fn+F7, Touchpad toggle, none Fn+F8, speaker toggle, works as expected Fn+F11, num lock toggle, works as expected Fn+F12, scroll lock toggle, unknown Fn+Up, Volume up, none Fn+Down, Volume down, none Fn+Left, brightness down, works as expected Fn+Right, brightness up, works as expected Fn+Pg Up, Home, works as expected Fn+Pg Down, End, works as expected There are also other special laptop keys but, because they seem to be custom to this model (launch email, launch browser, toggle bluetooth, toggle wireless) maybe this isn't the place to report about them. At least in Hoary the wireless key worked flawlessly at turning off the wireless modem. Turning it on was a whole different thing but because I'm using a ndiswrapper driver maybe that would be asking for too much. -- total support for laptop function keys https://launchpad.net/bugs/19005 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
