I can confirm it with coreboot ET4000 4.3-424-g7760261

my old oem bios doesn't have an option for that. it might possible, that the EC isn't supporting the fn_swap on this device.

i'll update to the latest oem bios to see if a newer version supports it.

even with the newest option, the oem bios doesn't have such option.
The x60 doesnt support this option, we should remove this nvram option from x60.

Will push a patch to remove the option from X60/T60 once gerrit is online again.
