Hi Csaba,

I missed your patch and could not find the post with a search.

So please, could you repost it or kindly mail it to me at

heliflyer [AT] arcor [dot] de

as I am using a Saitek X52 joystick and I was worried about that problem
not only because one cannot use all available keys but that the "dead"
keys trigger unwanted action.

Thank you very, very much in advance
