FnLk switcher for ThinkPad Compact Keyboards with TrackPoint

The Lenovo Thinkpad Compact Keyboard with TrackPoint is a repackaging of a Thinkpad laptop keyboard into a stand-alone case with a Bluetooth wireless or cabled USB connection to the computer.following the current fashion, Lenovo has made the top row of keys serve two purposes, using them for both the traditional Fn keys and for"hotkeys"intended to control various functions such as volume and screen brightness.

Pressing FnLk (Fn+Esc) switches these keys between generating Fn keypresses and hotkey keypresses, but this mode change is handled not by the keyboard itself but by Lenovo's keyboard driver for Windows.

On the Bluetooth version of this keyboard the default mode is to generate hotkey keypresses; this package will help you make it generate Fn keypresses instead.(The USB keyboard has FnLk set by default and so starts out generating Fn keypresses. )

Pairing the Keyboard

The Bluetooth keyboard uses BT 2.1 Simple Secure Pairing (SSP), which should be supported by modern Linux distributions.several different utilities can be used to pair the keyboard.

If your distribution does not support SSP, or if you have problems pairing with SSP, you can try disabling it withhciconfig hci0 sspmode 0

bluetoothctl

Pairing can be done with the pair command.you should be prompted for the PIN code to type as part of the process.

bluetooth-wizard

Select the device (keyboard) and click"Continue".Watch for the PIN code in the hcidump window and enter that.

bluez-test-*

Versions of Bluez that ship with these scripts don't support SSP and thus don't report the PIN code the keyboard requires you to use.

To get around this, run the following in a separate console before you start pairing :sudo hcidump -at | grep -i passkey -A1

During the pairing process, you are looking out for lines like :> HCI Event: User Passkey Notification (0x3b) plen 10

bdaddr 90:7F:61:01:02:03 passkey 123456

In this case, 123456 is the PIN you need to enter.

Put the keyboard into discoverable mode by holding down the power button until the light starts flashing.then use hcitool scan to find out what the address of your keyboard is.it should resemble 90:7F:61:01:02:03.

Firstly, create the device :bluez-test-device create 90:7F:61:01:02:03

Then start trying to pair :bluez-simple-agent hci0 90:7F:61:01:02:03

You should see the passkey appear in the hcidump window.Type that passkey at the prompt (using a keyboard already connected to your computer) and press enter.you should now be paired.Finally :bluez-test-device trusted 90:7F:61:01:02:03 1

bluez-test-input connect 90:7F:61:01:02:03

Toggling FnLk

Linux 3.17 and Above

Linux kernels 3.17 and above (or any kernel with the kernel-patches applied) have built in support for the keyboards.this means all keys should work out the box, and you can control whether fn_lock is enabled by :echo 0>/sys/bus/hid/devices/*17EF:604*/fn_lock

The kernel can't currently switch fn_lock automatically for you, however you can use esekeyd to map KEY_FN_ESC to a script such as :{ grep -q 1/sys/bus/hid/devices/*17EF:604*/fn_lock && echo 0 || echo 1; }

>/sys/bus/hid/devices/*17EF:604*/fn_lock

...to toggle it.

Apple OS X (MacOS )

tpkb is a Mac userland tool similar to tp-compact-keyboard.it uses the cross-platform hidapi library.

Linux Pre-3.17

To use the keyboard in an older kernel, you have several options.from easiest to most difficult they are :Use the tp-compact-keyboard program supplied with this package.

Load a kernel module such as tp-compact-keyboard-backport.

Apply the patches in kernel-patch to the source code for your kernel and recompile it.

We cover only the first option here.

tp-compact-keyboard is a small utility to control some features of the keyboard, most importantly to enable FnLk.it works only with the Bluetooth keyboard, whilst the USB keyboard accepts the same commands but not in the same way, one has to tweak the hidraw ioctls which (AFAIK) can't be done in a Bash script.Requirements

This was developed under a Debian unstable kernel, 3.12 -1 -amd64, and has been reported to work on kernels as early as 3.10 (CentOS 7 ).however older kernels (3.6, for example) don't send the report; i'm not currently sure why.Using

To enable or disable FnLk on all connected ThinkPad Bluetooth keyboards, run./tp-compact-keyboard --fn-lock-enableor./tp-compact-keyboard --fn-lock-disable. the program has a few other functions as well, but they're not very useful on their own.have a look at the source.

I'm assuming what you really want to do is force FnLk on and forget about it though.to do this, do the following as root :mkdir/etc/udev/scripts

cp tp-compact-keyboard/etc/udev/scripts/tp-compact-keyboard

cp tp-compact-keyboard.rules/etc/udev/rules.d/tp-compact-keyboard.rules

Then udev will enable FnLk every time the keyboard is connected.other options

There are a few other options, however they are mostly useless without a custom kernel module handling the keyboard :--sensitivity xx

Set sensitivity of TrackPoint. xx is hex value 01--09 (although values

up to FF work).

--native-fn-enable

By default, F7/F9/F11 generate a string of keypresses that might be

useful under Windows. This stops this, and instead only generates

custom events.

--native-mouse-enable

The middle button generates 2 events by default, but Linux only

understands one of them. This disables the event that Linux does

understand, leaving you with no middle button.

--native-mouse-disable

Restore middle button to a working state.

Pair/unpair isn't enough to reset the keyboard, you need to power down the keyboard to get it back to it's original state.

how i did It

I worked out the custom commands by sniffing what the Windows driver did.first i set up a Windows XP virtual machine in KVM/QEMU and installed the drivers.then i disconnected the keyboard from my computer and ensured that the user running QEMU could write to the /dev/bus/usb node associated with my Bluetooth dongle.

Wireshark was readied for capture :# modprobe usbmon

# wireshark

Then, i let Windows use the Bluetooth dongle :(qemu) usb_add host:0a5c:217f

If you capture the whole association process then you should be able to view HID packets to/from the keyboard (filter for bthid ).the particuarly interesting ones here are the ones going to the keyboard.

Disassembling the Keyboard

The upper part of the keyboard case is just clipped on; run something around the seam on the underside of the keyboard to release it.the keyboard itself is fastened to the lower part of the case with double-sided tape.this is fastened strongly enough that attempting to detach the keyboard from the case would probably bend it irreprably.

Repairing the Trackpoint

Some users of the Bluetooth keyboard have found that the TrackPoint stops working whilst the rest of the keyboard is fine.this isn't a software issue; apparently the chip that controls the TrackPoint isn't correctly soldered down.

Replacement trackpoint caps

The keyboards use the"ThinkPad Low Profile TrackPoint Caps"(FRU 0 A33908 for a 10 -pack) by default.the original-size will fit also, but stick out more.this is fine for the cat-tongue, but with the others your finger can catch the edge.
