I've been using Mer since 0.7, and I did not have this problem when upgrading to 0.8. Any pointers? Thanks!

i have this problem, too, with 0.9. i' ll probably make a thread about this

I neglected to update my situation. I reinstalled mer using the link in the wiki the next day, and all went well after that.

try: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg and see if that lets the Fn key work.

You probably have the package xserver-xomap installed, which is actually better than xserver-xorg, but seems to have a bug with the Fn key.

Re: Mer v0.9 released
 
just wondering. shouldn't the next release be mer 1.0 as opposed to mer .10..since that would mean you guys are jumping back 8 releases! (0.9 + 0.1 = 1.0)

This is how release numbers work it most wont be 1.0 until its well tested and out of beta. Works this way with all programs
