Just a fyi , I had the same problems with a thinkpad x220, T400 and T410, and stopped using trinity mostly for that reason. its not just fn+f1 its just all the thinkpad buttons and shortcuts not working in tde, wether it is for sound, suspend, luminosity . . . for years. I ll watch this tread and possibly get back to trying tde if/when this is fixed one day.
