I am running Windows 7 Enterprise x64 (64 bit) as a guest and the arrow keys and the 6 editing keys (insert, delete, home, end, pgup, and pgdn) do not repeat. All other keys, including the function keys F1-F12 repeat. I am very sure this is not a Windows 7 setting. Windows 7 32 bit and Linux guests do not have this problem.
Another symptom, which I think is related, is that characters seem slow to echo in the guest. If a key repeats, it echos just fine as it is repeating. If I type different characters really fast, nothing echoes until I stop typing. The host is a Lenovo Thinkpad T400 with 4GB of RAM. I am running kvm-72 under Debian GNU/Linux testing (squeeze), kernel 2.6.30-bpo.2-amd64 from the standard squeeze repositories. Here is the specific command I am using. sudo /usr/bin/kvm \ -std-vga \ -M pc \ -m 3200 \ -smp 2 \ -name csilt033-5 \ -localtime \ -boot c \ -drive file="/home/jcrossley/kvm/csilt033-5.qcow",if=ide,index=0,boot=on \ -drive file="/home/jcrossley/kvm/disk02.vmdk",if=ide,index=1,boot=off \ -drive file="/home/jcrossley/kvm/csilt033-3.qcow",if=ide,index=2,boot=off \ -net nic,macaddr=52:54:56:52:54:58,vlan=0 \ -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=vnet1 \ -parallel none \ -usb \ -usbdevice tablet \ -k en-us I have searched this list and the rest of the net and have not been able to find this issue discussed. Any ideas would be appreciated.
