Generally yes. The Fn key is usually handled either by the keyboard itself or by the BIOS, and the OS just sees the resulting key presses as if the keyboard had all the buttons. Can you not find such a switch in your BIOS? Saying what vendor it is might also help someone help you.
That is typically the only solution as far as I know. I had this issue, resolved it in the BIOS, then I remapped a couple file manager shortcuts to avoid having to use the FN+ combo altogether, for the most part anyway.
on my laptop there is a Fn key combinasion to switch between them… btw i don’t think it’s possible to trigger this from the Os side of thing, it is tied to the firmware…
No, the links about Mozilla show how corrupt their directives are. Peole are so eager to scrutiny competing browsers/company and their forgive every shit Mozilla or their board do.
By the way, who cares about Brave’s CEO? I don’t agree with his political views, but for me their browser it’s the best out there at the moment and the company itself isn’t politically active at all.
Did you ask any other Mozilla employee what their political views are, by the way? How can you be sure that all of them are “good persons”? Do you buy your stuff on Amazon, by any chance, knowing how evil thy are? Are you sure that your grocery store’s owner/your mechanic/your doctor/etc. isn’t an homophobe or a bad person? Please, be coherent and go and ask all the people you make deals with what their political views are.
I’m not upset. I may have been unclear. I just find funny that people in the (F)OSS/Linux community (which I’m clearly part of) are very prone to scrutinize Brave and other companies, while they pretend not to see what’s going on at Mozilla, which seems to always get a free pass.
I used to like Firefox (been using is since 2002ish…). But after a lot feature removals and, last but not least, the ugly UI redesign (despite the negative feedback in the nightly/beta phase) I just jumped ship. I’m not going to waste my time fixing it with CSSs, unfucking what Mozilla did wrong. Anyway, Brave is just faster, it performs better and has a no-shit UI.
This, plus the disappointment I’ve had with Mozilla, gives me exactly 0 reason to go back.
Thanks, yes that is actually a slightly more comprehensive backup, looking at their GitHub project at github.com/vikdevelop/SaveDesktop, and they have a Flatpak installation as well.
