Fn+ Key on T61 and USB Enhanced Performance Keyboard?

#1 Post by eecon » Tue Aug 28, 2007 3:49 pm

Has anyone figured a workaround for the lack of a Fn+ key on the USB Enchanced Performance Keyboard (US version)? It is the one with the 2 built-in USB ports.

I'm using it with a T61 docked on an advanced mini-dock with the lid closed and an external 22" WS monitor.

It would be nice to be able to toggle on/off the wireless radio or put it into sleep mode from a keypad command, like you can from the built-in KB.

Thanks!

With the Keyboard Customizer Utility, you can assign other hotkeys to perform those functions with an external keyboard.

There is both a Vista version and a XP version on the following page - that is if you do not have it already installed - look in Start > All Programs > ThinkVantage.

Drivers and software - ThinkPad T60, T60p
