Package: powerpc-utils Version: 1.1.3-22 Severity: normal Recent kernels seemed to have changed the behaviour of the fn keys. I recently upgraded from 2.6.4.19 to 2.6.4.24 and now the F-keys have their hot key behaviour by default and the "normal" behaviour only if fn is pressed, which is quite annoying. (I tried 2.6.22 from Lenny which exhibited the same behaviour). I did not find a kernel option to revert this but found fnkeys which should be able to change, but:
twotofive:~# fnset -u
unknown PMU version 17
twotofive:~# fnset -v -d -u
