[SOLVED] Hal daemon causing 3 keystrokes instead of 1

I've installed arch several times before and I've never had this problem. I'm pretty sure it's the hal daemon because "sudo /etc/rc.d/hal stop" fixes the problem. Also, the keystrokes only repeat while in X and it doesn't matter what window manager I use.

Any ideas?

your xorg.conf isn't configured well

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Thanks

Removing allowEmptyInput from xorg.conf fixed the problem.
