** Description changed:

  Every once in a while my repeated keystrokes quits working.  I then go
  into the "System Settings", "Keyboard", and see that "Key presses repeat
  when key is held down" is checked.  If I un-check and then re-check it
  then repeated keystrokes works again.
  
- I am not sure how to cause this.
+ I am not sure how to cause this, but on forums others have suggested it
+ might be VmWare, and I do use vmplayer.
