Comment 18 for bug 427168

Excellent workaround Oliver, Thanks! That is what I was looking for. For me I first used "xset -q" to find my current keyboard settings and now I use "xset r rate 208 83" in the gnome-volume-properties setting for keyboard command. I was trying to write a udev rule before you commented, but was unsucceful. Kevin, I also think it would be a good idea to get this reported upstream, but I don't know how to do it either. I have googled around about the problem and it seems like it may be a bug in xorg. Some other people have have issues with their modmap files not getting rerun -- it might be related. I have also used the "udevadm monitor" command to watch the notification events when a keyboard is pulled out and inserted.
