First of all, I have not been able to reach the website for this bug,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/264196,
in over a week.
I must point out that this bug is now happening approximately half the time
I start a Linux session. It's happening again today. Thi
The bug is back. The edit in rc.local fixed it for 2-1/2 weeks, but
today the old fast-repeat misbehavior has returned on my USB keyboard,
but not on the laptop's built-in keyboard.
I checked rc.local and my fix is still there, has not disappeared.
I am using Mint 6.0

Open a terminal window and type "sudo kbdrate -r 15 -d 1000". You'll be
asked for a password, enter your user password. This will yield a delay of 1
sec and repeat at 15 cps. You can choose different values if you wish --
these worked for me. To simplify the entry I created the following two line

Setting kbdrate in rc.local doesn't work with an external keyboard. The only

I should note that if you add this flag, restart X, change your keyboard
settings, remove the flag, and restart X again, the keyboard settings

again). So at least you can keep the evdev driver and have proper
repeat timing. Just
