[comp.unix.xenix] Changing the keyboard autorepeat rate

gson@hupu.hut.fi (Andreas Gustafsson) (06/04/89)

Does anyone know a way to change the keyboard autorepeat rate and
delay on the console of an AT-bus 386 machine running SCO Xenix 386?
The default is painfully slow for my taste.

If you have a program to do out/in instructions:

# Set up the repeat rate on the keyboard

/usr/lbin/outb 60 f3
sleep 1
/usr/lbin/outb 60 20
sleep 1
/usr/lbin/inb 60
