Bug Description

Ubuntu Intrepid x86. 8.10

Changes in keyboard typematic rate and delay in gnome-keyboard-properties has no effect. Delay is set to 250 mS, which is too short for this old guy.

Can set these parameters with kbdrate.

I have the same problem. Settings seem stuck near minimum for delay, and maximum for typematic rate.

Auto-login is NOT enabled.

Problem is not affected by whether I use my PS2 keyboard, or plug in a USB keyboard and attempt to adjust settings with that.

Installation of Intrepid was a full installation onto a freshly formatted partition for / , /usr/, /var. /home however, was carried over from the previous (Gutsy) version.

My Intrepid Ibex has regularly been updated, but this has not affected the problem.
