So I'm setting it faster with kcon from /etc/rc.local. When the X-Server starts up, repeat-rate is reset to original value - efficient both within X and on the virtual tty's. This wasn't the case with FreeBSD-2.1.0 - there the keyrepeat-rate within X did follow the kcon setting and wasn't reset. (People told me the keyrepeat-rate for X should be separately configured via XF86Config. This does not work, anyway.) >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Use xdm. Reconfigure kcon from xdm/Xsetup, after X server startup. regards, PM >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
