Changing the Function key functionalities
Hello,
I’m currently experiencing an issue with my Lenovo V17 laptop that is behaving unexpectedly:
– The laptop has Ubuntu Studio installed, with a small partition labeled “mandatory w11”.
– While I primarily use the laptop with Linux, there are times when my wife uses Windows 11, which causes problems.
– I have configured the BIOS to ensure that the function keys (F1-F12) are set as standard keys, rather than performing alternate functions as they do by default.
– Everything functions well under Linux until Windows 11 is accidentally run by my wife.
– Upon running Windows 11, all function keys revert to their alternate settings, even overriding my BIOS configurations.
– I have to manually change the BIOS settings back, and everything works flawlessly under Linux for a few weeks until Windows 11 is accessed again.
I find it puzzling how Windows 11 seems to override my preferences, even in the BIOS settings. Has anyone encountered a similar issue?
Best regards
