Subject:  [NTLUG:Discuss] No keyboard repeating in X



I'm having a bit of a problem with my X configuration, and I
haven't been able to figure it out from the man pages, though
I'll admit I haven't looked much farther.  The problem is that
the keyboard doesn't repeat if I hold down a key.  I have to
tap the key repeatedly if I want a keystroke to occur multiple
times.  This only happens in X, not in the consoles.  Anyone
know what my problem is?  I'm running the latest stable Debian,
and X 3.3.5 (SVGA Server) from the unstable branch of Debian.

Thanks!
