Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: I am not sure if this is a request for a new feature, or a bug, or a lack of understanding on how the keyboard works in getting notebook features to work.
This looks like it might be supported in the upcoming 3.1 kernel with commits e9809c0b9670656855655d8ed6dc33718ec12ba2 and af965e973276b015d1b7d9ee78ed8d8df9d6bc98. The latest kernel in updates-testing for Fedora 16 should have those commits. We won't be backporting those to Fedora 14 due to the large gap in kernel versions and the relatively short lifetime left on that release.
