I set everything to evdev managed and I took out my keyboard
configuration out of xorg.conf and everything is working great.  Had
to remap everything like I mentioned before, but that was probably a
30 minute job.
Now, one thing is really bothering me.  There was a few issues to
clean up, but now my keyboard rate is all messed up.  When I'm
browsing around documents or what not, I can use my arrow keys to
navigate.  Hold them down and I get the action I want... except my
Left and Down arrows.  There's no shortcut associated to them amd they
are mapped properly, I just can't do a rated repeat.  Anyone have any
tips on what I could look for?

BTW: Jan, hope turning off HTML formatting helps you out.
