F11: no key repeat using vnc (vncserver)

[Ken Roser]

Using vncserver on Fedora 11 (latest as of 5/5/09) and a RealVNC client 
on Windows, version 4.4.3, I don't get any key repeats when keys are 
held down. The same VNC client works with other vncservers on other 
Fedora systems.  The system is a Dell 2850.  The following error found 
in the vnc log probably offers a clue to the problem, but I have no idea 
how to solve this.  Can anyone help?
