xset no longer works in X init scripts?

[Malvineous]

Hi all,

In the last couple of days I have upgraded two different Gentoo PCs to the latest versions of everything in Portage, and now suddenly none of the 'xset' commands in my ~/.xsession file work.

I have xset commands to set the keyboard repeat rate (I disable autorepeat for the multimedia keys), set mouse sensitivity, etc. but none of these work any more. Other commands in the xsession file work, because those load applications which do appear, but I have to manually run all the xset commands myself from an xterm.

Has anyone else noticed this? Has something changed I missed?
