Hi,

I'm a little lost with the X11 driver. I need to know when a key is
released and watch for KEY_UP events. Basically it works fine but the
problem is the auto repeat function. For every auto repeat cycle I get
KEY_DOWN  * AND KEY_UP *  event (DOWN UP DOWN UP DOWN UP ... DOWN UP; I
was expecting a sequence of DOWN DOWN DOWN ... DOWN UP). These extra
KEY_UP events makes it impossible to distinguish between multiple key
presses and one long press.

Is this a property of X11 and is there any way to modify it's behaviour?

Thanks in advance
