By the way: the Dell Inspiron 1545 has a button with a picture of a
wireless antenna tower on it. I assume that works in the Windows
environment to turn wireless connectivity on and off. Does it work at
all in the Linux environment? Or may I safely ignore it? (It also
functions as "F2" if I strike the blue "Fn" key first.)

The explanation could be found in the user manual, right?
With a little salt and pepper. :)
On my Inspiron N7110, that key does work under F20/XFCE. It functions
as the "F2" key if pressed alone.
To toggle the wireless, you have to hold down the "Fn" key and press
F2. The same holds with the other F keys (they're function keys alone,
to use the alternate functions you have to hold down "Fn" while
pressing them). At least the screen switch, volume controls and keypad
on/off seems to work.
