[gentoo-user] DOSEMU keystrokes

2009-09-05 Thread David Relson
G'day, I have dosemu-1.4.0.1 on my AMD X2 system. The keyboard seems to be overly sensitive. Most of the time hitting a key results in 2 copies of the letter on the command line. For example, typing "d" results in "dd". What setting should I change to fix this? Thanks. David
