           Summary: On apple aluminium keyboard by default function keys
                    work as multimedia keys.

              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1

        AssignedTo: other_modules@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: mikhail.v.gavrilov@gmail.com

Please set hid_apple.fnmode to 2 by default

I don't know situation when on the Linux will more useful multimedia keys
instead functional. On whole internet on all forums for all Linux distribution
gives one advice to set 'hid_apple.fnmode=2' option in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX. Why
not this change doing in kernel by default?

This will make Linux easier for owners of apple aluminium keyboard.

Thanks.
