The Fn key is the wakeup key when the machine is suspended. If anyone wants to map it to other functions, then that's okay. I want to map the Fn key on Fedora 33 LXDE.
My keyboard hardware come with an Fn key, see: [img]https://i.imgur.com/HJlpSEt.jpg%5B/img]

It is often the case that these keys don't ever send anything to the system, and instead actually change what key is sent. So you might not be able to do what you want.
