it depends. It's a hardware question and the interpretation of the F5 key for brightness management is up to a special driver which the maker provides, or not. On my Thinkpad and under Debian Wheezy, all special keys are working. When I tested earlier versions of otker distos this wasn't the case. > If I revall correctly (this is an old PC of my daugther), I borrowed it > a few years back when I had to spend a week away from home. > At that time the PC was running Windows Vista and I used LibreOffice in > that environment, but do not remember any such behavior ... > > Usually nowadays, laptops have a "Fn" labelled key (lower left part of the keyboard) that allows switching from Special functions keys (brightness, volume, etc.) to normal function keys. On my Thinkpad, the default behaviour is special functions keys. To get the normal function keys I'd have to press the <Fn>+<Function key> combination which I found annoying. Fortunately, this behaviour may be toggled in the Thinkpad BIOS, which I did. Now, pressing a function key alone gives me the normal function result and to get any of the extended functionalities I have to press the <Fn>+<Function key> combination. -- Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Bordeaux -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
