Thanks for trying to help.
Few problems:
I have no idea how to install the file.
Even if I did, here's the entirety of the file:
0xA4 stopcd
0xB2 www
Two whole lines.
I did try to go to keyboard properties and use the drop-down selection
box to select the keyboard model, but all I got was "Toshiba | Toshiba
Satellite S3000"

Title:
Fn and Media keys don't work completely on Toshiba Satellite
a105-s2231
Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I have a Toshiba Satellite A105-s2231 with Ubuntu 11.04. One of the things I noticed quicky about it is that the Fn and Media keys don't work completely.
Image of my keyboard for reference(yes I know. I'm missing keys; that's not the intent here:
http://ubuntuone.com/p/1GO1/
The keys in detail:
Fn+Esc = Mute/unmute: Works
Fn+F1 = Lock: Does nothing
Fn+F2 = Power mode (I believe): Does nothing
Fn+F3 = Sleep: It goes into sleep, but doesn't fully wake up (another bug in of itself)
Fn+F4 = Hibernate: Starts hibernation process but doesn't finish (again, a different bug)
Fn+F5 = Toggle display: I don't think Ubuntu even uses this key, so....
Fn+F6 = Backlight down: Works
Fn+F7 = Backlight up: Works
Fn+F8 = Wireless on/off: Doesn't do anything (and neither does the switch on the side, I might add.)
Fn+F9 = Touchpad on/off: Doesn't do anything
Fn+F10 = Emulate arrowpad: Works
Fn+F11 = Emulate numberpad: Works
Fn_F12 = Scroll lock (again, Ubuntu doesn't use it)
Media keys under power button:
Globe icon = Web: Works somewhat (driver apparently reads it as Open Home directory)
Film icon = Media: Doesn't do anything
Play/pause, stop, and skip forward and back all work.
