Things to do after installing Kubuntu 20.04 LTS = getting it to work to my preferences (a person who has been with XFCE for 10+ years).

Keyboard key repeating is .. wonky. There is a distinct difference between terminal, GTK+ and KDE applications vs. XFCE, where its applied globally. KDE settings claim its “global”, but IRL, at least on Kubuntu, it is NOT.

• Environment: I am using keyboards with either Cherry MX blue, or Kailh Blue switches
• Pitfalls
  • it does NOT work automatically AND also NOT globally = you have to log out and login all the time if you want to see any changes .. tsk! *facepalm*
• Measurements taken so far
  • Took a glance into the original XFCE config files for keyboard - settings are: Delay = 280, Repeat = 65
  • Tried to emulate this on KDE - seems to semi-work for now (delay: 300, repeat: 45; sadly its max repeat is set to 50)
  • Terminal & GTK+: xset r 250 60
• Status: partially done (see above)
