I have no reason to believe that XInput2 has not always behaved that way. You are noticing it now because XScreenSaver only began using XInput2 as of 6.x. Stating the problem/annoyance more concisely: XInput2 does not send auto-repeat press/release events in the same manner as XNextEvent. -- Jamie Zawinski https://www.jwz.org/ https://www.dnalounge.com/
