I have keyboard issues (lemmy.world)

I'm using linux mint, and it seems like the "Fn" key is always on. I can't use the function key's (F1, F2...) normal function. With my other keyboard, everything worked fine. Fn + num lock doesn't work.

What's your keyboard? Mine is one of the MS ergonomic ones and has an "F lock" button but you have to look hard to find it.

found the issue, I think I have a custom keyboard, Fn + Function keys work as default function keys for me. thx for the help
