I get no autorepeat for the space key. > I also have tried it with some letter keys, same effect. > > After testing, it behaves has you said, however by looking at the ouptut of the following command: $ xset q It appears that 'xset r' / 'xset -r' toggles a global flag: "auto repeat: on" / "auto repeat: off" While 'xset r 65' / 'xset -r 65' changes a bit in the "auto repeating keys" mapping. So I guess this was the intended behavior, maybe the documentation is not explicit enough. So I will mark this bug as wontfix, or I can even close it what do you think ?
