I am not the fastest typer on Earth, far from it.

I use to have this printed all over the place on my Dell Inspiron 8100
laptop, without really doing anything special with my keyboard....

So I don't know if this was an issue or not, but given that my
keyboard never caused me a trouble, I just brain blacklisted the
message.

Thanks a lot for making this simple yet effective patch :)

Cheers,

Jerome
