[SOLVED] Fn lock broken

I have the same issue with a i5-1135G7, latest bios (3.17 I think). I can’t Fn-Esc to lock Fn in Fedora even after trying the above. I dual boot back to Win 10 and it works fine there.

Please give this a try and report back. [TRACKING] Fn key stops working on PopOS after a while - #32 by Matt_Hartley

Thanks. I had tried this prior to posting and have used Win11 lately instead of Fedora. I updated everything on the system today to latest and is working now so perhaps something fixed it in interim.

Hello there,

I got the exact same problem as jean, running Fedora on a 13" AMD 7040 series, I did not have to re-install my OS.

I checked my BIOS version using this procedure : How to check the BIOS version on Windows/Linux/BIOS
Showed that I was up-to-date

However, tried to update BIOS using this procedure : Framework Laptop 13 BIOS and Driver Releases (AMD Ryzen™ 7040 Series) (EFI Shell update)
This entirely fixed my issues. I also had cros_ec_lpcs errors on shutdown, those are gone too !

Hopefully this message can help someone !

I just had the same problem, which persisted after several reboots, but this suggestion fixed it for me on the next reboot.
