Hi Vladimir / All,
Just a question in case you guys know how.
Problem is fixed , nothing about that, but after the keyboard is detached and
reattached , I
always have to do another "kbdcontrol -r fast" myself for it to get back to the
speed I use.
I've tried to call this command from within devd.conf alongside moused, but no
success.
Any ideas ?
May be DE overrides repeat rate for you?
Anyway, it is possible to change repeat rate through evdev interface.
Following snippet of code illustrates a way to do that:
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <dev/evdev/input.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
void
usage(void)
{
printf("usage: eviocresp /dev/input/event0\n");
}
int
main(int argc, char** argv)
{
int fd = 0;
int rep[2] = {0, 0};
if (argc < 2) {
usage();
exit(0);
}
if ((fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR)) < 0) {
perror("unable to access file, exiting");
exit(1);
}
/* get current auto-repeat args. */
if (ioctl(fd, EVIOCGREP, rep)) {
perror("unable to set delay and repeat rate for input devices");
exit(1);
}
/* set auto-repeat rate as 0. */
rep[1] = 0;
if (ioctl(fd, EVIOCSREP, rep)) {
perror("unable to set delay and repeat rate for input devices");
exit(1);
}
printf("rep[0]:%d;rep[1]:%d\n", rep[0], rep[1]);
close(fd);
}
