Ever since upgrading to kernel 2.6.8 on Debian (sarge) I've had a problem with keys auto-repeating in X Windows.
The problem only shows up in X windows. While typing in a terminal window (for example) the key auto-repeat kicks in making it impossible to type. For example if I try to type 'clear', it comes out 'cllllleeeear'. I have to disable the auto-repeat function (xset r off). It looks like the key delay value is being ignored and the only thing I've changed recently is the kernel version to 2.6.8 (compiled from kernel-source-2.6.8 with the default config). I've tried various things like using the 'kbd' driver in my XF86Config-4 file, setting the AutoRepeat option in the keyboard section but nothing helps. I've been looking all over for answers to this problem but I'm getting nowhere fast! Please help me! -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
