I'm having some very strange behavior in X. I seem to have one of two 
problems. I can switch between them by making minor Xfree86 changes, ie 
changing AutoRepeat values.

1. When I start a new application that opens a new window the last 
character sent to the xterm gets sets repeatedly to the focused window. 
I am using windowmaker and set a hotkey for an xterm when I press the 
hotkey then that sequence is sent to the window manger repeatedly, 
results in many xterms piling up!! When in an xterm typing a key stops 
the repetition, but this does not work when the keyboard event is trapped 
by the windowmanager. 

2. I changed a couple of windowmaker settings and changed the AutoRepeat 
to 0 0 and now this is what happens:

after being logged in (through XDM) the keyboard events are not received 
by the windows. The mouse works fine, but the keyboard just stops 
working. Somtimes restarting the windowmanager fixes it, sometimes I have 
to logout (Reset the X server via -terminate). The keyboard freezes from 
anywhere between 5 min after login to an hour. Often it happens in 
sucession. Because the problem is somtimes resolved by restarting the 
windowmanager it makes me wonder if its a windowmaker problem. Anyone 
else out there running windowmaker under NetBSD1.5?

Thanks all.
