Hold key rate slow afer resume state guest machine => Fixed in SVN

[yann458]

Hello, Since version 4.2 of VirtualBox, When I call the user function Restore State guest machine that's OK,with out problem. The only problem: when I hold press a key of keyboard (without upping) the timer (rate) repeat character is slower.

To reproduce: _ Start the guest machine and boot Windows XP , Seven _ Run NotePad.exe

The everything is OK.

_ Suspend state guest machines _ Resume state guest machines _ Run NotePad.exe _ Press and hold a key of keyboard then the rate of repeat is slower.

Thank you.

I find myself having to set keyboard repeat rate in my Windows XP Guest now and then. Although it is set to maximum, I have to slide it away and back to max again; then the repeat rate is as it should be; VirtualBox 4.2.4 thanks.

I have the same problem. Key repeat rate drops to minimum speed after resuming a suspended VM. VirtualBox 4.2.6. Host is Linux Mint 14 64 bit Seems to affect all windows guests (tried 2K, XP, 7-32 & 7-64) and OS/2. Linux guests are fine.
