powerbook f keys stoped working

[IDANNY]

On my powerbook g4, some of the f keys stoped working. I dont know why its f1 through f10. f11 and f12 still work. I cant get them to work I have no idea what to do and its driving me crazy. If anyone knows why I would love any help. I already tried to reinstall the system and it didn't help.

did you try going to the keyboard and mouse section of system preferences an made sure that "Use the F1 - F12 keys to control software features" is not checked. This will let you use things such as brightness, volume, keyboard brightness, etc.

yah those are not checked the weird thing is f11 and f12 work.

f keys

I am having exactly the same problem with f keys 1-10 not working. Strange coincidence. Anyone got any ideas....please?

My fn key stopped working about 1 month ago but it is not much of an
issue because I didn't use it.

Maybe a PMU reset will fix it.
