Does anyone have a configuration that makes a Kinesis Freestyle2 Blue Mac keyboard as close to a MacBook keyboard as possible?
Problems that come to mind, are:
1. "Fn+Right" needs to be remapped to "End", and other similar "Fn+(direction)" combinations
2. Enforce the "Use all F-keys as standard function keys" setting from Mac OS Keyboard settings (Currently has no effect)

Unfortunately, you cannot use the fn key in non Apple keyboard.
> "Fn+(direction)" combinations
But you can assign the fn key to other physical keys, for example,
change your page down key to fn.
You can use fn+right as end. (physical pagedown+right)
You can use new setting to change the pagedown key.

Please show me the debug mode result for each keys.

How are you sure that you can't use the "Fn" key in non-Apple keyboards?

It's a generic behavior.
You can confirm whether your fn key works by debug mode.
If there are any output in debug mode, you can change your fn key by
Karabiner.
Otherwise, Karabiner does not support your fn key.

Hi Fumihiko,
Regarding the OP's second question - an issue I would also love to solve - below is the debug output from my Kinesis Freestyle2 Blue (Bluetooth) keyboard.
The F2/BRIGHTNESS_UP key with the Mac's "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" Keyboard System Preference checked:

Those keys do not seem to send a unique keycode but instead send a preconfigured keystroke combination. For example F11/Application-Exposé results in the following:

Thank you for your creation

You can't remap the useless keys (copy, paste, etc) because they send key combinations instead of unique keycodes.
Kinesis basically completely fucked up this keyboard by not sending the write keycodes for Fn+Anything, and even sending no keycodes for other Fn-combinations. I told them about it in detail, but they haven't said that they'll fix it in a future version. It's likely impossible to update any firmware on the keyboard.

Takayama,
Thank you for replying to me! Your reply has gotten me very far. I'm almost done. I just need to figure out how to not send the modifier key. The code you sent for F11 now gives:

So it's now intercepting the key and sending F11 (0x67) but it is also sending CONTROL_L (0x3b). I feel like the unwanted modifier it's sending is prohibiting correct mapping of the key. I cannot figure out how to stop it from sending CONTROL_L. Do you know a way?

That did it, Takayama! Thank you so much!!! I've customized all the keys one would want to remap. Please feel free to modify and share the template below with your users :)

</root>I didn't know to what I should map the extra keys to that would make it self-documenting like the F-Keys. Most of them however are just COMMAND plus some character for example, BRACKET_RIGHT for the web-forward key.

Are you actually able to remap the "copy", "paste", and "Fn+(Arrow)" keys with this file and Karabiner?

Copy and paste, yes (see KeyCode::C and KeyCode::V). I didn't attempt to remap the Fn+Arrow keys.

Could you see if you can remap the following:
Key Combo -> Action
--------------------------
Fn+Left -> Home
Fn+Right -> End
Fn+Up -> Page Up
Fn+Down -> Page Down

What error do you get when you try?

I haven't even tried using Karabiner yet. I wanted to confirm that the mapping is possible before going down that rabbit hole.
Do you have the Kinesis Freestyle2 Blue Mac keyboard?

I see. It's not possible. Just like Takayama said.

The physical fn key is not usable.
But you can change another key (eg. page down key) to fn key.
Then you can use fn(physical page down key)+arrows as home/end/page
up/page down.
