I solved my problem temporarily by create a file named "keyboardsettings.sh":

#!/bin/bash
gconftool-2 --type int --set /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/delay 184
gconftool-2 --type int --set /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/rate 150

and add it to the startup programs.
Locale settings are just similar. You can first check them using "gconf-editor". They are in
/desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd/
layouts = [us]
model = [precision_m] (I am using a dell laptop)

You can change the shell script accordingly. This bug remains not fixed in today's update.
