Description of problem:
After reconnecting a USB keyboard, the default auto-repeat delay and rate is 
used. The user's auto-repeat parameters are not restored.

When using a USB capable KVM switch, this means that the user's auto-
repeat parameters are gone when switching back to the machine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-drv-evdev-2.2.1-3.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change your auto-repeat settings. For example, increase the auto-repeat rate 
to something you would notice.
2. Disconnect your USB keyboard, then reconnect it. Alternatively, use a KVM 
switch to switch to another machine, then switch back.
3. Test the auto-repeat settings by pressing a key.

Actual results:
The keyboard is reset to the default auto-repeat parameters.

Expected results:
The user's auto-repeat parameters are actually set.

Additional info:
On F10, the user's auto-repeat parameters were restored, so this seems to be a 
regression in Rawhide.

can I assume you changed the auto-repeat in the gnome tools?
if so, this isn't an X bug. the device disappears and comes back with the 
default parameters. it's the desktop environment's job to change the settings 
when the keyboard is plugged in again, just as it did for the keyboard before.

This is true for all settings, acceleration, keyboard repeat, etc.

FWIW, the reason why this bug appears now but not in F10 was that F10
used the keyboard driver. it wouldn't see your keyboard but the generic
keyboard provided by the kernel (/dev/console). all hotplugging was
handled in the kernel, X never noticed that the device disappeared.

Yes.

OK, to which component should this bug report be assigned?

I could still reproduce this bug with Fedora 12. Changing version to

Anyhow I found out that when toggling the Numlock state after USB
reconnection, the auto-repeat settings are restored now.

Title:
  Keyboard repeat rate is often reset

Status in gnome-control-center:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  My keyboard repeat rate resets every so often; I tend to notice it
  once every few days. This is on a machine whose USB keyboard is always
  connected, and the machine itself is rarely rebooted; I tend to stay
  logged in for weeks at a time.
