Re: Updated: XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-22
I am not sure I know how the system worked internaly and I would
cetrainly make no requests in that matter. I was just trying to point
out the user point of view. You are (probably) saying that you have
improved the software internaly (which is always good). However this
improvement changed the original default behavior in such a way that in
order to get it back I am going to have to browse the net for some
XF86Config-4 file only to set it to same value I was perfectly happy
with before I did the upgrade. Isn't it weird? And I know this will fix
the problem only because I happend to subscribe a week ago to this list.
Before that I didn't even know there was such an option. Could you make
us all happy and use the win32 default unless told otherwise instead of
pulling one out of thin air? Does it sound reasonable? We are talking
here only about two numbers. I don't mean to be pain in the ... but I
really think it is more logical to do it this way. Would it break anything?

We were previously using two auto-repeat schemes at the same time:

Convince me why it is good to have two layers handling auto repeat by
default and I will accede to your request.

Done.
As it happens, I was completely happy with the old behavior. Now it
defaults to something else than I have set in the win32 environment.
Could the default be (when no config file is found) the autorepeat
that was before the change? Thus this upgrade would hit only the
users who really want to customise it.
