In a terminal window on the user with the problem run this:
and then try changing your setting again.
Code: Select all
sudo chown -Rc $USER:$USER $HOME

Some files where changed from root to my user but i can not yet change my keyboard settings. I change them with xset r rate 500 33 (the value from a working user) and with xset -q i shows that value, but the keyboard still does still work as the settings are not changed.

Visually they are the same snow, but the keyboard behavior is stil very odd and a way to slow. Is there a way to delete my own settings or overwrite them with working ones?
