Subject: Fix for 'the kermit problem' (keyrepeats happening before the keyrepeat
X-Git-Tag: v3.1.0~793
X-Git-Url: http://zhaoyanbai.com/repos/%22http:/www.isc.org/icons/dnssec-revoke.html?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5a43b84e2dc6d42c66bbb77c9a1f76a71e6db635;p=minix.git

Fix for 'the kermit problem' (keyrepeats happening before the keyrepeat
timeout). A fix is to treat the alarm and interrupt cases differently and
only call the interrupt handler when an actual interrupt has been seen. No
apparent adverse effects.
