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. 

Thanks :-)

 Hi Jean-Francois
 
 Respecting the display of the mode of the INS key. 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.
