You see, the server sets the autorepeat to useful values. I'm quite sure
there is another program in the startup scripts which sets the autorepeat
settings to the strange value.
Maybe this is not xset but the the windowmanager (kde, gnome) itself. Please
check the settings of the windowmanager if there is a strange autorepeat
setting.
