When I am in console, I can repeat the keystroke by simply holding it. I have configured it to have less delay with xserver.autoRepeatInterval
and xserver.autoRepeatDelay
with both set to 0
.
But when I am using a window manager( I have tried i3, xmonad and leftwm ), I cannot repeat the keystroke by holding. I have searched around and I cannot find any clue for this. How can I fix this issue?
I got this in my console:
xset: unable to open display ""
and I got this in my window manager:
After doing some research, I have tried to set the xset r rate
based on the wiki here, but still the keystroke does not repeat ![:neutral_face: :neutral_face:](https://discourse.nixos.org/images/emoji/twitter/neutral_face.png?v=12)
For someone who may bumped into the same issue in the future, check your setting for xserver.autoRepeatDelay
and xserver.autoRepeatInterval
. I have set them both to 0
and then it didn’t work.
