Description Carlos Garnacho Parro 2009-10-29 04:33:23 UTC

I'm actually not sure if this is due to XI2 or Xkb, but I'm noticing that key repeats are reporting deviceid = 0 in the event fields. This can be seen with xinput test-xi2.

this is almost certainly a server bug, the library doesn't treat key repeats in a special manner.
