Can you please install the "evtest" package, run "sudo evtest", and
select the device which represents your keyboard? Then you can press the
Fn keys and check which of them have a wrong KEY_* code. Please note
down the scan code, current, and intended key code.
For example,
Event: time 1384346796.203894, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 4 (MSC_SCAN), value 06
Event: time 1384346796.203894, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 227 (KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE), value 0
This is scan code 4 (from "code 4 (MSC_SCAN)"), and key code
"SWITCHVIDEOMODE". With the updated map that you provide I can fix
udev's keymaps.

Title:
[keymap] volume and brightness keys on Samsung Chromebook
Status in “systemd” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I've got XUbuntu/saucy on this US$250 Samsung Chromebook 5. It runs
very well, it just had a couple of minor issues that need to be fixed
and it'll be an awesome little Ubuntu laptop with a regular Ubuntu
install!
The volume and brightness keys don't work. When I checked them out
using xev, they were returning F keys:
F1 - back (i.e. like in a browser)
F2 - forward
F3 - refresh
F4 - fullscreen
F5 - switch screen mode
F6 - brightness down
F7 - brightness up
F8 - mute
F9 - volume down
F10 - volume up
I'm happy to try my hand at fixing it, but the documentation in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting pointed towards a non-
existent file for directions on the next steps:
