10.4: Avoid the 10.4.9 Eject key activation delay
Authored by: headphonejack on Mar 21, '07 03:20:25AM

Immediatly noticed the delay on those keys after applying the 10.4.9 update. (I use to shut down all my macs with this shortcut -> dialogbox. It is faster than doing it with the mouse.)

Anyway. I have not found out that this hint works. There is no change in the delay.

What I have found out so far is, that Apple destroyed something in the system preferenced "key repeate" and "key delay" rate with this update. There is nothing so far to change anymore. (Changing the speed from slow to fast, and enter the example text in the box below, shows that nothing has changed.)

Anyway, I miss this keycombo shutdownfeature a lot, hopefully a experienced mac user will come up with a "default write ...." for the terminal...

thanks for that
Rob
