Public bug reported:
I'm on Ubuntu 17.04
Gnome Tweak Tool says it is version GNOME Shell v3.24.2 (classic mode)
When I enable "Gnome Tweak Tool/Typing/Miscellaneous compatibility
options/Apple Aluminium Keyboard: emulate PC (Print, Scroll Lock Pause, Num
Lock)" it doesn't work.
The keys in question F13, F14 and F15 remain dead functionless keys.
But there are changes going on in the background.
For example the keycode mappings for F13, F14 and F15 do change
With the Tweak Tool Apple Aluminium Keyboard setting un-selected (default)
$ xmodmap -pke
keycode 191 = XF86Tools NoSymbol XF86Tools NoSymbol XF86Tools XF86Tools
keycode 192 = XF86Launch5 NoSymbol XF86Launch5 NoSymbol XF86Launch5
XF86Launch5
keycode 193 = XF86Launch6 NoSymbol XF86Launch6 NoSymbol XF86Launch6
XF86Launch6
And with Tweak Tool Apple Aluminium Keyboard selected:
$ xmodmap -pke
keycode 191 = Print Sys_Req Print Sys_Req Print Sys_Req Print Sys_Req
keycode 192 = Scroll_Lock NoSymbol Scroll_Lock NoSymbol Scroll_Lock
Scroll_Lock
keycode 193 = Pause Break Pause Break Pause Break Pause Break
So something is happening.
