Well, I can tell you a few things: if you have a num pad fn+num pad plus and minus are your volume up and down, fn+numpad star, which basically is the same key used for a right mouse button in jfw, is your mute toggle on and off fn+F7 and fn+F8 are your screen brightness Those're the only ones at this point that I know of. I'll have to try your fn+F3. I didn't know about that but if that works, that would be awesome!
