Description of problem: The F1-F12 keys perform their alternate functions without pressing the FN key. Holding the FN key and pressing any of the function keys results in the behavior expected if the FN key were not pressed. This results in key combinations like FN+CTRL+ALT+F1, FN+ALT+F10, etc. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. connect keyboard 2. press any function key 3. hold FN and press any function key Actual results: Function keys perform alternate functions without FN being pressed Expected results: Function keys should operate as function keys unless FN is being pressed Additional info: evtest does not return anything for the FN key and some of the alternate functions. FN+ESC is supposed to operate as a function-lock, but does nothing. product support page: http://support.lenovo.com/en_CA/product-and-parts/detail.page?&DocID=PD026744

Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
