@Brad: What you describe is easily obtainable for any keyboard by spending 5 minutes in the Keyboard Shortcuts program. Right now this mapping is done by adding (buggy) code to the kernel - and is very difficult to change back for users expecting their F-keys to work consistently as for any other keyboard. Furthermore F5 and F6 are inverted compared to the other F-keys!
The F-key are important keys in OpenOffice, Firefox, Evince, Evolution, Krusader and many, many other programs - and often the F-keys even has modifiers like Ctrl and Shift. This makes it unacceptable to require fn to be pressed for using the F-keys, whereas it is a small offer to require the fn key pressed for the six(!) media keys that actually have a meaning in Ubuntu. -- Slim USB Apple Keyboard not working correctly.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201887 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
