Well, Changing the client preferences reduced the key repeat problems we were seeing with the Enterprise Edition 4.4 of RealVNC in some cases but not in other ones. The erratic key repeats did not disappear but were less annoying. Also, changing repeat settings on the Xvnc side did not make any difference in our particular case. However, the one thing which did resolve the problems is the beta version of an upcoming RealVNC release, to be announced.
