Do these default values look reasonable? $ xset q Keyboard Control: auto repeat: on key click percent: 0 LED mask: 00000000 auto repeat delay: 985 repeat rate: 111 auto repeating keys: 00ffffffdffffbbf fadfffefffedffff 9fffffffffffffff fff7ffffffffffff I never set the value of the autorepeating keys. How are they being set like this by default? As you can see the delay is almost a full second, but in practice, it is more like 1.20 seconds. If on your fedora xset r rate N M works without giving you the error message, could you please share your xorg.conf and the version of these packages: xorg-x11-server-utils xorg-x11-server-common xorg-x11-server-Xorg Thanx.
