Comment(by greenfeld):

 Upgrading to Q4B08 might help os40 determine how your 1.75 is equipped a
 bit better.

 Keyboard repeats work for me in os40/Q4B08 for XO-1.75 on the Linux text
 console and at the Open Firmware prompt.  X Windows/Sugar does not show
 repeat working for most alphanumeric keys, but it does work for keys like
 the backspace key.  Tested with both mechanical and membrane keyboards.

 Paul Fox notes this may be intentional; /usr/bin/sugar-session has an xset
 -r line which disables autorepeat for "several keys" and then goes on to
 name a few dozen.  But os2/11.3.0 on XO-1/XO-1.5 does not disable
 autorepeat in Sugar, or something is re-enabling it.
