Problem

Hi, I'm struggling with key repeat setting.

It's really annoying that key repeat setting is reset when bluetooth keyboard is connected (every time).

Note that repeat key setting using gsetting or Settings - Universal Access - Repeat Keys has the same problem.

Is there any way to resolve this problem?

I use the following script for this use case. Adjust the 300/301 as you prefer. Save this script in /home/$USER/scripts and link it with

ln -s /home/$USER/scripts/toggle_keyboard_delay.sh /lib/systemd/system-sleep/toggle_keyboard_delay.sh

#!/bin/sh

PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin


this code is linked so that it runs after system wakes up from sleep:


ln -s /home/$USER/scripts/toggle_keyboard_delay.sh /lib/systemd/system-sleep/toggle_keyboard_delay.sh


chmod +x /home/$USER/scripts/toggle_keyboard_delay.sh


Get the current keyboard delay value


current_delay=$(gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.keyboard delay)


Check if the current delay is 300


if [ "$current_delay" = "uint32 300" ]; then


Set the delay to 301


gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.keyboard delay 301
else


Set the delay to 300


gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.keyboard delay 300
fi


exit 0
