Correct link to the image:

![This is how my Keyboard looks 
like](https://redhat.discourse-cdn.com/fedoraproject/original/3X/9/c/9cd2b2b6d17b3c29db991de77c525eca428d0da8.jpeg)

I tested using `xev`

- Pressing: `Volume Mute Key`(as can be seen in the image of the 
keyboard)  i.e. `F1` without `fn`

```
KeyPress event, serial 38, synthetic NO, window 0x1c00001,
    root 0x4a4, subw 0x0, time 10824947, (508,1177), root:(558,1304),
    state 0x0, keycode 67 (keysym 0xffbe, F1), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 38, synthetic NO, window 0x1c00001,
    root 0x4a4, subw 0x0, time 10825079, (508,1177), root:(558,1304),
    state 0x0, keycode 67 (keysym 0xffbe, F1), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False
```

- Pressing `fn` + `F1`

```
KeyPress event, serial 38, synthetic NO, window 0x1c00001,
    root 0x4a4, subw 0x0, time 10827233, (508,1177), root:(558,1304),
    state 0x0, keycode 67 (keysym 0xffbe, F1), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 38, synthetic NO, window 0x1c00001,
    root 0x4a4, subw 0x0, time 10827375, (508,1177), root:(558,1304),
    state 0x0, keycode 67 (keysym 0xffbe, F1), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False
```
