Issue 212: Function Keys

Reported by Geoff Badham, Feb 9, 2011

Apparently limited enabled keycodes for 'extended' functions (keypad 
specific) like Home, End, PageUp, PageDown on Alpha 400 range 
hardware. Not sure a Kernel issue but scancodes not detected using 
normal routines. All 2.6 based installs of Debian - Lenny, Sid . . .

There appears to be code in the keyboard driver, but it may be 
broken - or there is different mapping of the Fn key on some 
machines.

Any new test results?
Is it really a kernel issue?
