We can't fix the hardware. We only could detect hardware flaw, report it (the message), and try to workaround it. So the bad news would be that our workaround causes some unwanted behavior to other features of notebook -- keyboard, special keys, battery & AC status reports, etc. If no such problems were noticed -- there is no bug, and there is no problem.
