Often, the Fn key on a laptop does not send an actual scancode - there's nothing that keyd can do about this. In that case, the only thing you can do is remap the keys that are emitted when you combine Fn with some other key.

You can confirm this by checking if the Fn key emits anything that can be detected by some other program, like xev or wev.

Sometimes the manufactures software like aula supports fn key remapping
