  After recently updating my MacBookAir to 12-STABLE r358483 (which i do once a month), I'm making numerous mistypes using the keyboard on the vt console than ever before.

  This is most apparent when I boot up FreeBSD and login to the console, as I consistently fail to enter my password correctly unless I slowly type it out.

  It's hard to reproduce as you have to type quickly, and not all key combos seem to cause the issue, but I've noticed that extra repeated keystrokes are being inserted into the output.

  For example, typing  "ls -l <Enter>" quickly sometimes causes the terminal to show "ls ---l" or "ls -lll", or multiple new lines to appear at the end.

  Has something changed with the default key repeat timings recently, and has anyone else noticed this behaviour?


Thanks,
James
