Hello!

There is a difference (subjective) feeling between 2.6.0test4 kernels and 2.6.0test6 kernels:

When I press one key and wait how fast it repeats printing it differs between those kernels.

test4:
very fast, very smooth. I like that. it's like it latter 2.5 series

test6:
more or less fast; like in 2.4 series.

Can you tell me what you changed and howto regain this smooth handling from test4?

I don't think kbdrate will be the right tools, as the difference was seen/ recognizable on console and under X.

Have a nice day,

Nico
