I seem to have found a culprit somehow but don't know where it comes from. 2.6.29 has hid_apple but that module failed to load for me. modprobe -v told me that it tries to "insmod /lib/.../hid.ko pb_fnmode=2" but that module doesn't like that parameter so it fails. Now I'm wondering where that might come from. And strangely it seems to have hooked itself into /etc/yaboot.conf: append="hid.pb_fnmode=2" Now I wonder a.) how it actually ended up in there (though, not really that interesting), but rather b.) what the correct append option for 2.6.29 would be to switch to. I do want to have my function keys work as normal function keys and not have to press the fn additionally to get that. Thanks - I guess that I found the append line as reasoning means that I can close the bug report, though the issue isn't closed completely for me yet. So long!
