Re: Keyboard repetition under X11
hi, maybe you should give kbdcontrol a try you could also pass the values in /etc/rc.conf as keyrate=delay.repeat Chris wrote: Hi all, this is probably a silly question, but I can't find what I'm doing wrong, so I need help.

Re: Keyboard repetition under X11
Hi, thanks, but unfortunately that didn't help, since the problem is confined to X. What did work, though, is that I added: xset r rate 500 20 in my .xinitrc So I suspect that there's some bug in this version of Xorg w.r.t. AutoRepeat and this keyboard type (since it has worked immediately on older Xorg versions), but the above seems to be a good-enough workaround for me. /Chris --- alt127 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hi, maybe you should give kbdcontrol a try you could also pass the values in /etc/rc.conf as keyrate=delay.repeat Chris wrote: Hi all, this is probably a silly question, but I can't find what I'm doing wrong, so I need help.
