Function key's on PowerBook

[Greg Hamilton]

By default F11 and F12 are used to emulate second and third mouse 
buttons. The key press events must be trapped and consumed before 
showkey sees them.

I don't know why F10 isn't working. Perhaps it is trapped by pbbuttonsd 
which is a daemon which handles iBook and PowerBook special keys and 
other laptop specific stuff. Have a look in /etc/pbbuttonsd.conf or the 
man page.
