Title:
  Fn-F8 broken on Dell E6410

Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: udev

  Pressing Fn-F8 appears to produce symbol 'p' on Maverick beta. keymap -i reports two scan codes when Fn-F8 is pressed:
  0xDB (leftmeta) and 0x19 (p). When I press Fn and hold it, no scancode is reported -- both scancodes are reported when F8 is later pressed with Fn still held. README.keymap.txt does not say how to fix such situation, so all I can do is report all data.

  
  $  cat /sys/class/dmi/id/sys_vendor
  Dell Inc.

  $  cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name
  Latitude E6410

  Keymap and udev db will be attached.
