   You have to prepare in advance, and make sure the keys work, and if not,   
   find out how to call up the functions that the keys should call. Just   
   manually.   
      
   The keys will not work by magic. Report the bug.   
      
   The default action of 'just mirrored' can be changed so that it is no   
   more the default action.
