Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
Another variation of the arrows won't repeat bug (probably related to bugs #264196, #278078, and #281546)
I am running Jaunty (upgraded from Intrepid). I have a dual head setup where I configure the keyboards in the xorg.conf file (attached). Everything works fine but the repeat of the left and down arrow keys. They don't repeat at all.
As a workaround I can make then repeat buy running "xset r 113; xset r 116"
Obs: It looks like somebody else is hitting the same bug, see

I'm using dual seat setup (2 xservers/2 monitors/2 keyboards/etc.) and has exactly this problem (on both seats) after upgrading to Jaunty. "End" key (code 115) is affected too. xset r workaround works for me too.
Related `xset q` output before running xset r (note the second line ending with e5ef):
fadfffdfffdf e5ef
ffffffffffff ffff
ffffffffffff ffff
auto repeating keys: 00ffffffdffffbbf
After applying `xset r 113; xset r 115; xset r 116` (now the second line ends with ffef):
fadfffdfffdf ffef
ffffffffffff ffff
ffffffffffff ffff
auto repeating keys: 00ffffffdffffbbf
I'm running KDE 4, but restarting X server and using icewm session gives the same result (i.e. this is not KDE/Gnome specific).
