Hi,
I am new to linux and ubuntu (although use basic unix at work).
I am currently dual booting XP and 8.10 on a Samsung NC10.
Thanks to this forum, I have got a stable (although slow wifi connection using the built in Atheros card) - my thanks for that!.
The only issue (I am aware of at the moment) is relating to the keyboard. ½ the keyboard is set up as a numeric pad that should be used via the function button, however, it works the other way round - if I hit the keys 'UIOP' I get '456*' and 'JKL;' I get '123-'. but if I hold down the funstion key I get the correct letter.
Any one any idea on how to correct this?
I have tried random keyboard layouts via the keyboard preferences.
Thanks in advanced.
