Painkiller character stops when holding "Move" key

Post by Wolvenreign »

So, I'm playing Painkiller for the first time on WINE. I start the first level and begin to walk forward. However, I notice that if I hold the key longer than a second, the character will stop moving in that direction. How do I fix that?

Disable key-autorepeat in KDE/Gnome.

Worked. Thanks.

For all lurkers and passersby, just to make this a little more obvious...

From Gnome....System->Preferences->Keyboard. The option to turn it off will be staring you in the face. I assume it's similar for KDE.
