Adding notebook features to Ubuntu (10.04)
 

Hello,
I have recently installed new Ubuntu 10.04 system on notebook, and would like to have there all "notebook-like" features, like working fn+key shortcuts, and other similar things.

So I would like to know, if there is a way (complete package, or application) which can do this kind of things? I can't find any system built-in features like this, so any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks.

Edit: Found there is fnfxd for Toshiba notebooks (which is my case), now the problem is (yes I am newbie) where to find toshiba_acpi module, or how to enable it if it's there.

If you are comfortable using the commandline type: the module may well be there just not loaded. If you get a positive result running that command let us know and we will figure out how you can get the module to load at startup.

This symbol | is found by pressing shift & \ key.

Thanks for your post,
unfortunately it's not there, but I expect my kernel having toshiba_acpi specified as "m" in config. (Target system is Ubuntu, and here on Debian Squeeze it is). However, I don't know where to find that module, and am not experienced with installing modules to kernel too.

Thanks for replies.
