I was looking for the way one changes the auto-repeat rate of the keyboard on a
Solaris 2.5/CDE 1.0.1 machine. The answer is to add the -ar1 and -ar2 arguments
to the /etc/dt/config/Xservers Xsun line(s) to globally set the auto-repeat
speed. There was one response that a .xserverrc file could be used for user
specific customization but I have not had time to try it.
