I made some changes to evdev-1.2 regarding autorepeat. evdev-1.2 does not do
any autorepeat anymore but let's xorg-server do softrepeat instead. Before my
changes, xorg-server AND the input module autorepeated keys. AFAIK evdev-2.0
let the kernel autorepeat pass again.
There was a bug in xorg-server that the autoRepeats map from the keyboard was
not copied to the core keyboard, so instead of an evdev map the kbd map was
used, in which Left and Down are modifiers, so not autorepeated. Daniel Stone
was working on that but I don't know if it's fixed in master.
