"slow Down" Keyboard Speed In Pdaxrom?
« on: July 06, 2007, 11:39:01 am »
Dear all,

I'm running Pdaxrom on a Sharp Zaurus SL-C3000, and I've just recently
been able to connect an external usb keyboard to it (nothing specific, just
around $10). This works, but always gives between three or four
symbols for each time I press a button.
How can the speed of a keyboard be reduced in pdaxrom or
also by some general linux tool I could install?

Thank you very much,

alyss

Take a look at 'xset' I think you can change the repeat rate using that command and some options.

look at the kbselect script in pdaXii13. it sets up a workable keyboard rate for you as well as remap the keyboard so all the keys match...
