Johannes Berg told me he wants to use the fn key alone to switch the
keyboard layout or something. For such uses, the pb_enablefn is there.

Sorry, actually it's called pb_disablefn now.

What does it do ? Just send a keycode ? That should be unconditionnal.
The Fn key should change a keycode always. I don't see why you would
that to be off.

No, if that parameter is disabled, it translates key combinations like
Fn+F1 to KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP. If it's enabled, it only sends KEY_FN.
