I'm not having any luck setting the keyboard repeat rate at the console
with wsconsctl( Cool

. I'm using these commands, but it doesn't seem to be
affecting the rate.

# wsconsctl keyboard.repeat.del1=100
keyboard.repeat.del1 -> 100
# wsconsctl keyboard.repeat.deln=25
keyboard.repeat.deln -> 25

The new values are getting set, but the rate isn't changing (setting the
delay really high or really low has no affect). This is 3.6-stable, i386,
with a USB keyboard. Here's a snip of the dmesg.

uhidev0 at uhub0 port 2 configuration 1 interface 0
uhidev0: Mitsumi Electric Mitsumi USB Keyboard, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2, iclass 3/1
ukbd0 at uhidev0: 8 modifier keys, 6 key codes
wskbd1 at ukbd0 mux 1
wskbd1: connecting to wsdisplay0

Any ideas?
