Expose key bindings do not work for me!

FYI: I'm using a 15" powerbook.

If I set the keybindings to left shift, left command etc, BOTH shift keys respond. I guess this means that these are not distinct keys on the powerbook.

Setting keybindings to something like command-F1 does not work either - just get the default behvaior for the key.

Finally, my settings are often lost. Personally, I find using the F-keys incredibly inconvenient for something that I'd like to use very frequently.

Anybody else noticing wierdness with keybindings in expose?

Okay, well it turns out it is necessary to use the fn key in addition to command-F1 in order to override the brightness and contrast set to those keys. Still it seems kind of out of the way.

I agree.

I wonder if there is a way to make the F9 and F10 keyboard brightness keys require the FN key and then make expose use the regular F9/F10 keys...
