I haven't gotten any clear answer if I should create separate bug report for my non-Dell laptop, so I am assuming it's fine to paste respective parts of Mitac 8050QDA dmidecode:
------------------------------------------------------
# dmidecode -t bios | head -8

Handle 0x0000, DMI type 0, 20 bytes

Fn+VolumeUp/VolumeDown/ToggleMute are the only ones not working correctly, other Fn keys are just fine.
