Earle, The normal path for any Cygwin-related patches it that developers send them to me, I apply them to my local tree, I make a test release, I ball the fixes up and send them to patches at XFree86, Alan Hourihane picks up whatever I send him and commits it. XFree86's Bugzilla was just

I tried the xset r off when it was mentioned and have not had a keyboard bounce problem since. According to the way I read the man page for xset, only the rate parameter is handled by the keyboard extension and not the autorepeat on/off. From what I can tell, in a ms-windows based xserver, that
