	Nah, no worries, no insult there. That's why I asked.

But yes, I found out shortly before that I indeed need to use the [fn] 
key to get the [Fx] keys to ack as I expect. Otherwise, they act as the 
secondary labels say (volume control, etc.)
	In MacOSX, you have to go to a System Pref to change the default 
behaviour to get them to act as F keys...
	Looks like I need to fiddle with pommed for Ubuntu...
