N8x0 to mainline patches

When the rx44 keymap support is added back in your quilt set, can we discuss it. IIRC, the same kind of value (i.e. > 255) is also in the rx-51. Any specific reason?
I presume the reason is that the "standard" code for the "Fn" key is 464... so it is only correct to map "Fn" to KEY_FN. ;)
There is a software Fn key on some Mac laptops as well. Do they work? Why/how?
Note: before I installed KDE 4 on my N810, Fn was working in X with its usual keycode...

I know, but from the document I read on the topic, xorg does not support keycode value higher than 255. I must definitely be missing something.

My old laptop was a powerbook 12" running Debian and that key never worked, IIRC.

If you manage to find out why/how it worked at some point, I am interested.
