I am having the following problem: after upgrading to SR10.2 the keyboard of my DN580-T started behaving strangely. The autorepeat keys don't autorepeat all the time. Sometimes they autorepeat, but very often they don't autorepeat. Sometimes they move only one place and sometimes they move +/- 6 places after which you have to press the key again. Disconnecting and connecting the keyboard helps a little bit (i.e. the autorepeat works again for a few minutes), typing kbm -r does not help. Has somebody else noticed this problem? Another feature that I noticed is that the mouse pointer flashes when I drag the mouse. On a 3000 that I have (also SR10.2) this does not happen (although I have seen another 3000 that exhibits the same feature). Both systems are running Xapollo, but I notice the flashing when using the dm. It looks like the system can not keep up with the mouse motions. What is going on here? Thanks in advance for answering. -- Fons Rademakers. -- Org: NIKHEF-H, National Institute for Nuclear and High-Energy Physics. Mail: Kruislaan 409, P.O.
