Wade> 3. After this, my key repeat was broken (tested with mozilla and the Wade> shell). I have similar experience due to that I have to set the time manually when I boot (RH8.0). (I'm trying to find the cause of this but still I have to fall back to the work around to set it manually.) My conclusion however is that X doesn't like when the time is set a few hours away from where it was when X was started. Maybe because it is done in one step. Not only the key repeat is broken but also other X-events behave strange. Restarting X fixes these problems. Yours -- %% Mats
