I have a K2 as well. I set it in Windows/Android mode to use with my Linux box (Mac just changes the modifier keys afaict). The F-keys default to the FN row, not the F1-12. You can change that with a command I completely forgot and just copied once to a startup script.

    > cat /etc/modprobe.d/hid_apple.conf
    options hid_apple fnmode=0
I think this has recently (Linux v5.19) changed to have F1-F12 by default.


I just looked in my startup and this is what I have:

    echo 0 | doas tee /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode
But it's good to know where the permanent configuration lives, thanks!
