Additionally autorepeat as a property only tells half the story; I might prefer a 1ms delay while my neighbour Joe might like a 3 billion year delay (he's a bit like that, Joe is). He also only wants the esc key to repeat and can't figure out how to express that in this DTB thing he's never heard of. We can just leave this with me grumbling if you prefer ;) Thanks, Mark. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
