However, to confirm it's not just my typing, I booted into my old kernel =
(r357365) and I don't see the issue as in the newer revision (r358484).
I think it may be something to do with the latest version not resetting =
the initial repeat delay when another key is pressed, e.g.
1) Hold down the 'a' key.
2) Wait a split second just before the 'a' key should start repeating, =
and press 'l' key whilst still holding the 'a' key.
3) There should be a renewed initial delay before the 'l' key starts =
repeating, but I think it starts repeating almost immediately (as if it =
were still counting from the press of the 'a' key).
Hope that makes some sense! :-)
