jordan,

  how broken do you mean?  every now and then i don't get autorepeat
  when i hold down a key.  this is usually associated with furious
  typing.  however, releasing the key and depressing it again has
  always invoked the autorepeat so i haven't gotten too concerned about
  it, especially since the new sun-3 keyboards beep at you and drop
  characters sometimes when typing quickly.  does autorepeat not work
  at all for you?

  then again i'm running 3.4 and you're running 3.2...  any other 3.2
  sites experiencing the same problem?
