Description of problem:
Keyboard works fine though receiving a keyboard repeat rate error in
XFree86 log

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.4.21-20

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot into X
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  Booted into X, keyboard works, shows keyboard repeat
rate error

Expected Results:  No error

Additional info:

(EE) lnx_io.c: Unable to set the keyboard repeat rate using the KDKBDREP
     ioctl().  This may be caused by a buggy kernel.
(EE) lnx_io.c: Unable to set the keyboard repeat rate using the KIOCSRATE
     ioctl().  This may be caused by a buggy kernel.
(EE) lnx_io.c: Keyboard repeat rate setting has been disabled because the
     kernel running on this machine seems to be malfunctioning, or
     does not support the KDKBDREP or KIOCSRATE ioctl() calls.
     This is probably a kernel bug.
