Merci. This is actually the way I found out that this "fn" key was useless, at least until I find out how to change its mapping, or to add its mapping so both usual keyboards and the Apple ones are actually working. I was not using OpenOffice, but another plain text editor that was displaying the INS status on the status bar. As I was typing this reply, I discovered again how much I like the feeling of the keyboard, just enough so that I know when a character is actually entered, but at the same time, it is very quiet. I wish all keyboard would be that silent in an office. That would help reducing the noise just a little bit.

If you are working in OpenOfficeWriter the current status of that key is indicated on the bottom status bar below the text one is generating. I hope this helps. Apart from that, I can offer no further help. CroombeFP -- This e-mail produced entirely under Linux.
