NO, NO, NO NO, THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING !!!

No wonder I'm typing things like 'tis' so often lately, in vim where 'h' is the key to move te cursor one char to the left; I tried the command '7hr', meaning move 7 char to the left and replace the letter under the cursor with the next typed key-stroke.


I had to type '7hhhhhhhhhhhhhh' on my keyboard to get ONE H !!!!

Now wonder Control+H has been taking so long to backspace over crap....



My laptops h key is starting to ignore keypresses! I tested it in urxvt/screen, vim, firefox3, and xchat; then tried xev and using the system console... same results. This is horrible !!! I'm going to have to dismantle my laptops keyboard later and take a look.... This is _BAD_. I use my laptops keyboard a lot, so muc in fact that tere is no label left on my 'N' key, and the 'D' and 'H' meys labels are half faded out haha.


CRUD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I don't need many keys, only about 56 -> the average PC keyboard has 104 keys today, but finding 105/107 key models are not uncommon either. With a laptop, I basically demand 12 hours of typing comfort out of the 56 keys I need, same as any other keyboard I use....

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
