Satellite M100-180: Fn keys does not work & cant add Kubuntu

OS WXP
Display Driver ATI
1.FN Key: is not working.....
2.I can't add Kubuntu (Linux OS) cuz the Display Driver(which I update it) or cuz of the Bios(Which I update it)........
what is the solutions here??? Thanks

Hi there,
Thanks for the response....
The second issue of Linux OS has been solved, the issue was caused by the ATI card which was not supported.
Regarding the FN issue, I can use FN+F1 & F2 & F3 & F4 & F5, for the rest of the option of F6 & F7 & F8 till F12 is not working with me!!
I checked the usage of the buttons and its all working, only with the feature of using it with Fn key its not working!!! This issue is on Windows XP.
I tried to update and to re-install the keyboard and re-install the FN features but nothing happen.
Before it was working great.
Just to remind my notebook is Satellite M100 series.

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Fn keys does not work with Windows Vista

    Hello,
    I own a Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7E and a retail license for Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit (with SP1) installed on it.
    Before installing Vista, I upgraded the BIOS to the most recent version available on the Toshiba site ([http://it.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/vista_drivers.jsp?service=IT]).
    BIOS version is now 2.20-WIN32 contained in this file: [http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20080404121735.zip]
    After the successful installation of the operating system, I installed the "Value Added Package" ([http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/vap-20080109135106.zip]) which contains the "Flash Cards Utility". In my understanding, the installation of the "Value Added Package" should enable the Fn keys usage.
    This doesn't seem to be true or not completely true.
    Here is what happens.
    - Before the installation of the "Value Added Package" all the Fn keys didn't work.
    - After the installation of the "Value Added Package", if the TCrdMain.exe process is running, all the Fn keys don't work.
    - If I remove the TCrdMain.exe from the startup and I reboot the PC, only some Fn keys work (Fn+ESC, Fn+F1).
    There is no way (or I didn't find a way) to make all the Fn keys working.
    Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
    Thanx in advance,
    mme000

    I do not know for sure but it can be because of SP1. I have installed Vista Ultimate on A200 and all listed stuff (drivers, tools and utilities) from Toshiba support page.
    Does your installations Vista DVD contains SP1 or you have installed it on your own? If you install Vista Ultimate (without SP1) and all stuff from Toshiba support site following Installations Instructions order.

  • Tab key does not work

    This is very strange, please read.
    My tab key does not work. It will not move from one text field to another.
    I have checked my keyboard settings. "Full keyboard access:" is at the default "Text boxes and lists only".
    I have deleted this user and recreated the user, and with the completely new user the tab key does not work. Other users on the machine it DOES work.
    This is happening now on 3 of our 5 machines.
    Lastly, when I turn on the keyboard viewer (International/Input Menu/Keyboard viewer: it shows you what key the system thinks you are pressing when you press a key on the keyboard), it shows that when I press the tab key, the Command key is being held down instead. It's not showing that the tab key is being pressed.
    Has anyone seen this previously? Again, it's happening on 3 of our 5 machines (some users the tab key works, some users it doesn't). These are fresh user creations (no special software installed, no prefs changed, etc...)
    Thank you for any info!!!

    "Repair Disk Permissions" from Disk Utility may help.
    Also, cmd-opt-n-v (Clear NV RAM) may help as well.

  • Always Script Editor ... Alt Gr key does not work

    Hi,
    With IE6 in SQL Script Editor
    Alt Gr Key does not work.
    For instance, I cannot type ||
    In fact it's a copy-paste from SQL command (which works well)
    Note Script Editor does not work with Firefox.
    Thank you for any information
    Regards

    You might try this:
    Remove any USB device except mouse/keyboard
    Perform a PRAM-reset (hold ALT-CMD-P-R until you've heard the starting chime 3 times)

  • MacBook Pro up arrow key does not work how to fix it?

    When I am just working on the computer the up arrow key does not work at all but when I use bootcamp to go to the PC side the arrow works so i know its not a phisical problem, i have tryed everything i know and still no success.

    Hello brooklinekilla,
    I would be concerned too the up arrow key on my keyboard was not working.  I found an article that can assist with further isolating and troubleshooting issues with the built in keyboard.  I recommend following the steps under the section titled, "Some keys don't work as expected" in the following article:
    One or more keys on the keyboard do not respond

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to launch firefox 3.6.3 with windows vista? Hot key (ctrl + alt + key) does not work.

    The hot key (ctrl + alt + key) does not work. This is in Windows Vista.

    Thank you Morbus and Cor-el, for your prompt replies. Here's what I did: I've placed the Firefox icon in the quick launch toolbar. So I right-click this firefox icon>Properties>Shortcut tab>in Shortcut Key field, add X (the word "None" changes to "ctrl + alt + X")>Apply>Okay>and that closes the dialog window.
    Then, to try the new launch short-cut, I press and hold down, in order, ctrl, then alt, then x (holding all three down) . . . and nothing launches.
    I thought this would do it! So any further thoughts would be a splendid help ---- many thanx!

  • New Apple Keyboard Launchpad F4 key does not work

    New Apple Keyboard Launchpad F4 key does not work
    Hi, I have now got ne new wireless keyboard because my old one broke. I connected the keyboard, the F3 key (Mission Control) functions, the F4 key, especially for Lunchpad does not work, I'm Lion on it, previously on the old keyboard I had in 2009, he occupiedwith Launchpad F5.
    Have System Preferences / Keyboard / Keyboard Shortcuts reset everything goes ......... but not yet!!
    Maybe someone can help me!!
    Thank you
    greeting

    Hi,
         Your migration to Lion brought over a previous hot key preferences document. And this contains one bad key that wasn't updated.
    - Quit System Preferences (if open)
    - Delete this document to remove a carry-over mapping error.
    - Then logout
    Note: That this will delete any existing modified keyboard assignments. Re-assign changes manually.
    Note2: This document is in your users preferences folder.
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist

  • Enter key does not work anymore in address bar after FF update

    After the update the Enter key does not work anymore. Neither when I type the url directly, nor when I select it from the history.
    In short FF has become unusable. Now I need to install and use a less crappy browser. Extremely sloppy, amateuristic update.

    see if this is helpful : go to Tool > Options > Advanced > General tab > Browsing and '''Uncheck''': "Use hardware acceleration when available" .

  • Clear Key does not work in DW (OSX)

    In Dreamweaver, when you select a local file and hit the
    Delete key (back delete located in between forward slash and the
    end key), nothing happens. In the contextual menu, there is a Clear
    key symbol but nothing happens.
    Does anyone why the Clear key does not work?
    I'm using OS X 10.6. But I could remember this happening in
    earlier OS.
    Thanks

    Really? Something is wrong there. I sure can....

  • My key does not work/Invalid Registration

    I have been trying for days to unlock Quick Time(QT) Pro, but my registration key does not work!!! I've done all possible requirements, I have copied and pasted my user name and the key code (so those are correct), I do the correct qualifications to run the software, I am using the QT control settings, and yes I do have QT 7.0.3. All my criterias meet to unlock QT Pro but I keep getting the message saying Invalid Registration. I've done all possible trouble shooting techniques given by Apple's tech support but I've simply have had no luck. To my understanding the key code has to be 5 sets of 4 numerical characters (20 characters long) but the one that I got from Apple is only 7 characters long. I've clicked on the link that retrieves a lost key but I get the same number. I try calling customer service but have had no luck in reaching a live operator. What do I do?

    Yea you are right, I am inputting the part number. However, I keep looking for the 20 character long key but there is nothing there in either the confirmation email or the invoice email that they sent me. I check the "Download History" on the Apple Store website but it only gives me the name QT Pro, the part number and the date that I purchased it. There is no 20 character long key given. Could they have not given me the key by accident? Like I said, event when I go to the link to retrieve my lost key, it gives me the same part number! Please help, its been more than a week and I am getting frustrated!!!
