Closing out this old thread: I returned from my trip away from this machine and the first thing I did, of course, was install all the updates waiting for me - both for the debian host and the Windows 7 client. Something in there fixed my autorepeat problem, so I'm sticking with kvm 0.11.1 for now. This is my primary work computer, so I want to stick with the standard repositories as much as possible. Thanks for everyone's suggestions. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
