- I have AutoRepeat in Xconfig and I have tried many different delays and
- repeat values and nothing works. The repeat rate I get is the same as I
- do from the console which is about 4 characters/second. Not very fast.
- I was getting 10 or so characters per second with ISC. I looked at the
- keyboard driver and see nothing there so repeat must be a keyboard
- function. Any other ideas?
