Hi folks
I've got a dual boot PC at home with Win-XP and Fedora 18. (I did also have the problem when it used to run Fedora 10).
When in WinXP everything works perfectly. However when in Fedora the key repeat doesn't work properly. Occassionally while typing I will get 2 or 3 of the same character which is rather annoying. What is even more annoying is that when I use the backspace key to fix the problem it will sometimes delete 10 - 20 characters instead of 1-2.
The keyboard is a Microsoft badged multi-media keyboard but as I didn't have to install any drivers in WinXP I think it's just the same as any other multi-media keyboard.
Anyone got any ideas how I can fix it?

You can adjust the 'delay' and 'speed' of 'Repeat Keys', by choosing 'Keyboard', under 'System Settings'. (Or search for 'keyboard' at desktop search tool if you are using Gnome-3).
