Mark,

I am curious, because we both have the same hardware, and initially experienced the bug in the same application, emacs. Have you mapped the Ctrl key to the Caps Lock key? I have observed that the Caps Lock key is part of the trigger of the repeats. Without remapping, the normal Ctrl key does not contribute to repeats. The Caps Lock key however will.

Additionally, I am unable to reproduce repeats in Recovery Mode (without X) using a console. Can you reproduce the problem in a console without X?

Thanks,

Harvey
