How to swap the Fn and Ctrl keys in a Lenovo laptop
I’ve been issued a lenovo laptop for the first time and the first thing I noticed is this weird keyboard layout where the typical locations of the left Fn and Ctrl keys are interchanged. I’m already used to the typical layout where the Ctrl key is in the leftmost part followed by the Fn key. Fortunately, Lenovo has made it possible to swap the Fn and Ctrl keys through BIOS. The complete instructions are in this how-to article.
There are two ways to enter the BIOS.
