test case.

I cannot seem to get xevie to function correctly with XkbSetDetectableAutoRepeat similar to the bug reported here http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6326551

Basically XkbSetDetectableAutoRepeat does not seem to have an effect on xevie where if it is enabled i still receive both key up and down events.  I am using xorg 7.2 and xorg-server 1.3.0.0.


I have attached some same code to illustrate the issue i was having.

Xevie is no longer supported, and is effectively deprecated.  I expect it's even further broken in servers 1.4 and above, and unusable in servers 1.6 and above.

Is there replacement library to do something similar?

I'm not aware of any plans for such a replacement.
