Pregunta 10
Pregunta
To assist an employee who has trouble with keyboard repeat features, you’ve disabled this
function in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Why might this step not be sufficient for the goal of
disabling keyboard repeat?
Respuesta
-
GNOME, KDE, or other desktop environment settings for keyboard repeat may
override those set in xorg.conf.
-
The xorg.conf file has been deprecated; you should instead adjust the /etc/X11/
XF86Config file.
-
Keyboard settings in xorg.conf apply only to Bluetooth keyboards; you must use
usbkbrate to adjust keyboard repeat for USB keyboards.
-
You must also locate and reset the DIP switch on the keyboard to disable keyboard
repeat.
-
The keyboard repeat options in xorg.conf work only if the keyboard’s nationality is
set incorrectly, which is not often.
