Bug Description
I like a fairly fast repeat rate and low delay when typing.
In the course of using my laptop (Dell Vostro 1500), I sometimes plug in a USB keyboard. Every time I do this, I notice that the repeat rate and delay on the USB keyboard are way slow and high, while the built-in keyboard repeat rate and delay are as I like them (fast and low).
To fix this, every time I plug in the USB keyboard, I have to go to System→
I believe that at least these keyboard settings (repeat rate and delay) should be universal for all keyboards.
Repeatable: always.
How to reproduce:
1. plug in a USB keyboard
2. Note current repeat-rate and delay.
3. Change repeat-rate and delay via System-
4. Unplug and re-plugin the USB keyboard.
5. Return to step 2.
