Description Bastien Nocera 2005-02-15 12:47:20 UTC 
The VIDEO test on RHEL3 can fail on some platforms because of this
error message that was added to XFree86 in the course of the
development of RHEL3.

(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.
