Has that worked in the past … on previous Debians … on
the originally installed OS?
Do you see any reaction in the logs (daemon.log and syslog)
when you press that function key? Does xev show a XF86WLAN
keysym occurring (or anything)?
Presumably as there's a function key, there's no button
on the laptop, as commonly found on ones old enough.
