Hm... "cat /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb" output a lot of stuff.

I have tried evtest and input-events without any success (i.e. no events on Fn or from the Fx keys that doesn't give anything useful in xev). Will try input-kbd and lsinput, thanks! > There is some information about the Fn key there: > https://askubuntu.com/q/818413/691424 Will read!

Hm... ok. Could a kernel module change be the cause of what affects my keyboard? (ie. my recurrent question: is it possible to fix Fn without entering the BIOS?)
