[Bug 1455788] Re: key is repeated, but keyboard does not send scancodessssssss

 

As discribed in my first post xev reports repeat key, showkey nothing is repeated.
So which source files of xservers are involved and use the same functions of showkey and will create the xevents?

Im interessted in reviewing the code and (if possible) to add debug
informations.
