Should I specify something in the XClient settings? Thank you very much anyway for you kind response.

On my IBM, this is the F7 key together with the blue FN modifier key. Or else check out the manual that came with your laptop. cheers, Tobias _______________________________________________ freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-mobile-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" ----------------------------------------- The information contained in this electronic message and any attachments are intended for specific individuals or entities, and may be confidential, proprietary or privileged.
