After update of x-server packages keyboard does not auto-repeat cursor keys.
How I can fix that (i believe it can be done through a config file)?

Check the man pages for xset(1) and xev(1).

'xset r' enables autorepeating in general
'xev' will tell you the keycode of a key you press
'xset r <keycode>' enables autorepeating for a specific keycode

On my system, the keycodes for the cursor keys are 98, 100, 102, 104.

Good advice.

On my Sid system only the left arrow (113) and down arrow (116) are affected and using xset r <keycode> fixes it.

I also note that this affects the evdev driver and not the kbd driver if that is used.
