Debugging some annoying problem on an Lenovo IdeaPad where the keyboard stops working after suspend+resume.. so I need to use an external keyboard sometimes.

It will never stop annoying me that notebook vendors can't decide where to put the fucking Ctrl (Strg) and Fn keys -_-

@Doomed_Daniel Often there’s an option to swap them in the BIOS configuration

@marshray
yeah but not for the external one - and (from another laptop) I've just gotten used to Ctrl being the outerleft one.
also not sure if this IdeaPad would allow this, its BIOS options are extremely limited

@Doomed_Daniel Yeah, ‘Fn’ keys on external keyboards are generally handled within the keyboard itself.

@Doomed_Daniel

Looks like a distro bug.

No, it seems more like a kernel and/or firmware bug
