George, I entered your code in the terminal (with a change in the delay rate more to my tastes) and got this output:
sudo kbdrate -r 15 -d 750 [sudo] password for gumby: Typematic Rate set to 15.0 cps (delay = 750 ms) And I can report that the internal keyboard in my laptop now responds correctly, but the external USB keyboard I use most of the time does not. It still displays the old repeating key behavior. Is there any workaround that works for a USB keyboard attached to a laptop? -- [intrepid] keyboard Repeat Keys is failing to adjust https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264196 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
