On my laptop I have fluxbox with Aterm. But I have a problem, if I use xterm, I have no problem using the Fn key, but now I want to use aterm, because it can be transparent. But in aterm the Fn key don't work, but I need the Fn key to type + - etc. How to get it to work?

greetings

Normally, Fn should be hardware controlled, and work automatically in any software. Try running "xev" and see if pressing the Fn key generates an event. Normally, it should not. Hitting Fn+something_Fn_should_work_on should generate a different event than just the something_Fn_should_work_on.
