In our work group we've installed NetBSD 1.1 on a normal Pentium PC 
and find the keyboard repeat rate too slow under X.

Ok, no problem, just change the values in XF86Config...
..hmm. Doesn't work. Reading some FAQs and searching the Net
hints that the parameters -ar1 and -ar2 when starting the
X server. Doesn't work either (Parameters are not known to the
server).

So what can we do? The keyboard is driving us mad.

PLEASE HELP!

Roland
