Bug description:
Fn key does not work on macbook air, i've seen something similar with macbook pro 4.1 on launchpad, but as said on that bug list, the keyboard device id is not the same, so their patch/solution cannot work for me.

i suppose the solution is similar 

the lsusb -v gives me this device for my keyboard:

Bus 003 Device 006: ID 05ac:820a Apple Computer, Inc.


also, i don't know if important but i've installed pommed 1.16 from ppa's mactel packages, and it does not mention macbook air, then i tried pommed 1.17 from debian etch and it mention macbook air. the two packages doesn't work for me, but maybe there is something to look there as on svn there are versions to 1.19


EDIT: debian sid package is now 1.18, but still not working.
