Mario Limonciello, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:
apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>
Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder, but the one at the top) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER
where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc4
This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER
As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)

Apple fn key behavior isn't consistent with what's expected

Bug description:
Hi, this is a follow up to bug 162083. With my newly functional FN
key on my Aluminum BT keyboard, I realized that the default behavior
on it doesn't make much sense with what users have come to expect on
Linux systems. The default behavior is that the "special keys", like
f1-f2-f10-f11-etc all act "special" without pressing fn. They then
act normally when you hold FN. This is the default behavior on Mac
OSX, but on Linux the FN keys are more commonly used. Eg, it's rather
awkward to have to press ctrl-alt-fn-f1 to switch to a VT, or FN-F11
to set a terminal full screen.
