When using an evdev keyboard, arrow keys do not work as they should:
- Left, Down - key works, but do not repeat
- Up - key do not work at all
- Right - works correctly
I can fix the Left and Down keys (so that they repeat) with xset:
xset r 113
xset r 116
No idea how to fix the Up key though (it is detected in xev; if I should
provide xev output, let me know).
This is the keyboard section in xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard1"
Driver "evdev"
Option "device" "/dev/input/by-id/usb-Cypress_WirelessUSB-event-kbd"
Option "XkbModel" "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
EndSection
