I just got a new Dell laptop that has the stupid multimedia keys/function keys that can toggle between the two with the fn key. I've got it set to be the function keys by default naturally, but I set the F7-F12 keys to be media keys using Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts because I don't use those keys often.
Occasionally, I do want em though, so it'd be really nice to be able to push ctrl+F-whatever and it'd be the same as me pushing F-whatever. I'm not sure what level to attack it at though, like is this going to require some kernel hacking or is there a nice convenient GNOME interface for modifying keys like that?
