Gang,

	A extremelly weird problem I am having in X 4.1 under FreeBSD
4.4-STABLE, i'm not sure if it should go here or somewhere else but here is a
breif outline.

	I have a Toshiba Portege 4000 (Trident Cyberblade XP kinda card)
running under the vesa driver due to this version of the trident not being
supported by the trident driver. Everything works fine except for one tiny
little thing, by default when I am typing (I type at about 60 wpm not overly
fast) I get quite a few double characters in any words I type. This only
happens in X, not in the console nor under windows. 

	My current workaround is kicking off the following in my .xsession...

#!/bin/sh
while true
do
/usr/X11R6/bin/xkbset bo 50
sleep 60
done

	Which seems to do the job 99% of the time and makes things usable but
not 100% of the time, has any body had this kind of experience and if so did
you get it fixed :)

	If you have no idea what I am talking about reply back and I will try
and elaborate a bit more. I have also included a copy of my XF86Config.

Cheers,

Mark
