This could be caused by the fact that as far as I know, X are not using kernel-autorepeat, but they are handling it themselves, right? So if their sense of time (probably due to some change of kernel timekeeping) gets wrong, the autorepeat in X might also get wrong. It would be nice to know if when you hit the situation when autorepeat goes strange in X, if it is still OK in console. -- Jiri Kosina SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
