Sadly, the fn key seems to be completely nonfunctional. In other words, I cannot hold down fn+left arrow and get the equivalent of the Home key, etc. It just ignores the fn key and behaves like a left arrow key. I am on Ubuntu 14.04. version_signature output is: Ubuntu 3.13.0-37.64-generic 3.13.11.7 Output from running hidd is: 04:69:F8:D5:46:48 Magic Keyboard [004c:0267] connected FYI, my function keys (F1-F12) work perfectly fine and are not mapping to media keys by default, but I had tried all the suggestions on the Ubuntu wiki anyway (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppleKeyboard, "Change Function Key behavior"). Still no go. I suspect this is a kernel issue, since there was a bug report several years ago for back then's latest Apple wireless keyboard that had the same issue, and the kernel just needed a patch for the new device ID. But who knows? Thanks in advance. To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1558646/+subscriptions
