Bug Description
On my Dell Laptop Latitude 110l, using Dapper, the function keys for Hibernate (fn-f1), and for the battery status (fn-f3) don't work. If I use xev, here is the output I get when I press these two functions keys:
Hibernate (fn-f1):
KeyPress event, serial 26, synthetic NO, window 0x2e00001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 812513907, (168,-10), root:(1009,131),
state 0x0, keycode 165 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False

My Inspiron 630m has those and other keys not working, unless I manually configure them. See https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/LaptopTesti ngTeam/ DellInspiron630 m for details of the keys. This is definitely an issue, although it's fairly easy to fix manually.
