I doubt that this is Fedora doing it. It's more likely to be the laptop
keyboard using Function Mode for its F keys.
For example, on my Dell the radio enable/disable key is on Print Screen.
The other F keys are assigned things like Mute, Volume Up, Brightness, etc.
On my keyboard there is a Fn key which switches between Function Mode.
If I want F1 instead of Mute I can press Fn+F1. I can also press
Fn+Escape to toggle Function Mode on and off. Then if I want Mute I
press Fn+F1, otherwise I get F1.
Different model laptops do different things so you'll have to investigate.
