not all keys on keyboards are 'keys': some might just flag the kb controller internally to switch between symbol sets. In other words, they're not designed to send kb-events. That's the usual case for <Fn>. Some Fn-* combination translate to kb events, others (combinations or special keys alone) don't - you need ad-hoc driver/sw (or via ACPI/APM/IPC/...) to catch (and make use of) them. -- paolo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
