Hello Jonathan, can you please follow /usr/share/doc/udev/README.keymap.txt and use the "keymap -i" tool to find out the scan codes of the broken keys, together with their intended meaning? Your vendor/model names are already in the apport information, so I just need the 8 scan codes for the keys you mentioned in comment 5.
> Also note that the Fn behaviour is inverted I am fairly sure that you should be able to configure that in the BIOS. My Dell Mini 10 has this (mis)feature, but in the BIOS setup you can choose which way around these keys work. Either way, it's not something we can influence in the udev keymaps, I'm afraid.
