Is there any way to change fn (function) and control functions in linux on macbook pro?

I don't care if this is done in the BIOS or the kernel module or software. Is there any way to make the fn key act as a control and the control key act like a fn in linux running on macbook pro?

PS. You can do this using software in OSX using the KeyRemap4MacBook application.

Try the xev command and press Fn.

On my computer (Lenovo T60), I see this in the terminal when I press the Fn key:

KeyPress event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00001, root 0x6d, subw 0x0, time 2266123481, (652,782), root:(655,915), state 0x10, keycode 151 (keysym 0x1008ff2b, XF86WakeUp),

So, the Fn key is key code 151. My left control is 37. Then you can reassign, knowing which key codes they generate.
