Hello,

I have a Dell Inspiron 5000 running 4.10-PRERELEASE.  The key combination 
Fn+F8 is supposed to switch from the LCD screen output to the VGA port to 
both and so on.  This does not work when running X, but does work when I'm 
in console mode.  The other special keys that require Fn all work fine 
(such as the ones to change the volume and screen brightness).  However, 
there is one other combination that doesn't work, which is Fn+NumLock = 
ScrollLock.  Again, this combination does work in console mode.

Unfortunately, I can't switch to the VGA port in console mode and then 
switch back to X, it goes back to the LCD.  I'd really like to get this 
key working, since I do use this for presentations.

Thanx,
Benjamin Alan Weaver
