When fn Lock is on (i.e for typing numbers on the keyboard) is there a way to type a dot (.) without disengaging the fn lock?
I'm a muppet if I missed this one
EDIT: Only works in terminal

Ok. (while fn on)
If I hold CRTL, then dot. nothing happens.
If I double click ctrl it works, but disengages Fn lock and opens onscreen characters.
confused, is it just mine?
I just want to type ip addresses without having to disengage fn for the dot :-(
CHeers.

I realized Ctrl + (.) only works in the terminal.
Your best option is to edit /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/nokia_vndr/rx-51 file to suit your needs. (e.g. changing period to question and vice versa)

Oh well - might try to 'edit' keymap someday.
Thanks for the tips all of you
