This is based on the assumption that those keys have no other functions on the VIBS unit. When the next user inserts their smart card the speed should be set to the default value.

This is complete. Dmitry's estimate of two weeks effort was dead on.
The feature requires that Direct X is installed on the Ballot Station:

> Windows 98: Direct X 7 is preinstalled.
> Win95: Download Direct X 7 from Microsoft.
> Windows NT 4: Download Direct X 3 from Microsoft.
> Windows 2000: Direct X 7 preinstalled (although we don't have any W2K Ballot Stations).

Right now the release is only available as a seperate 3.13 branch for demos. If El Paso or anyone else would like this as part of a standard release (and wants to do the testing), let us know and we'll do the merge.
