Linux doesn't detect Fn + F6 (toggle touchpad) combination on Lenovo V580 laptop
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
0
Though there is "toggle touchpad" secondary function on F6 button of my laptop currently this shortcut doesn't work.
xbindkeys -mk command doesn't show any info when I press Fn + F6.
I couldn't find related option in BIOS (to disable/enable the function).
