- Update grub (don't forget
sudo update-grub)

lib/modules/5.3.0-24-generic/updates/dkms/applespi.koIf you want the F-keys to be always on by default and the Fn button for switching from F-keys to special keys, then use the following command (if not, fnmode=1):
echo 'options apple_ib_tb fnmode=2' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/apple_ib_tb.conf
echo 'options apple_ib_tb idle_timeout=60' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/apple_ib_tb.conf
update-initramfs -u -k 5.3.0-24-genericThis section is common to wheher you are using legacy monolithic driver or not.
You can also swap fn and a control keys:
echo 'options applespi fnremap=1' | tee /etc/modprobe.d/applespi.conf
update-initramfs -u -k 5.3.0-24-generic
Or remap it to any other key:
# modinfo applespi | grep -w fnremap
parm: fnremap:Remap fn key ([0] = no-remap; 1 = left-ctrl, 2 = left-shift, 3 = left-alt, 4 = left-meta, 6 = right-shift, 7 = right-alt, 8 = right-meta) (uint)
