Hello all.

I'm stumped.

I remapped my "Control_R" key to "Prior" with:

I then set autorepeat "on" for the remapped key:

When I check the function of the newly remapped key with "xev", it shows up as "Prior" and the autorepeat function looks to be working. However, when I try to use the autorepeat on the new "Prior" key when in an application, I find my success to be hit-and-miss. For example, the autorepeat function works in Thunar, Firefox, and Evince, but does not work while using nano, OpenOffice Write, or Adobe Reader.

What can I do to get this newly remapped key to autorepeat for all apps?

I'm using Debian Squeeze.

TIA!

Well, after stumbling across this page:

I puzzled it out.

Before reassigning the "Control_R" key, I entered the following command:

Now, my newly reassigned key seems to autorepeat across all applications.

Thanks for looking, IHTH someone!
