RE: cinema display Brightness-control woes.



What's equally annoying are the Comm+Opt+Cont+ < or >. Although at least they're a little more hidden.

When checking a new keyboard our IT technician discovered that f14 and


f15 keys raise and lower the monitor brightness! This feature is not

useful in our student lab with profiled monitors and I need to disable

it. How do I disable this feature?>



This feature is built in to the OS and can't be readily disabled...at

least not without some nasty hacking. An easy method might be to post

warning labels or pry off the buttons ;-). Maybe you could get Apple USB

keyboards that only have function keys up to F-12? Fortunately, this

feature doesn't seem to function with the newer Cinema Displays, though

the side buttons are just as easily bumped when accessing the power

button...maybe more so.
