+
+<para
+>The actual effect of setting these options depends upon the features provided by your keyboard hardware and the X server on which &kde; is running. As an example, you may find that changing the key click volume has no effect because that feature is not available on your system. </para>

+<para
+>When this option is selected, pressing and holding down a key emits the same character repeatedly until the key is released. Pressing and holding the key will have the same effect as pressing it multiple times in succession. </para>

+<para
+>If supported, this option allows you to hear audible clicks from your computer's speakers when you press the keys on your keyboard. In essence, this simulates the <quote
+>click</quote
+> of a mechanical type-writer. You can change the loudness of the key click feedback by dragging the slider button or by clicking the up/down arrows on the spin-button. Setting the volume to 0% turns off the key click.</para>
+<para
+>Many computers won't support this function.</para>
+<tip
+><para
+>Very few people would choose to enable this option, since it generally annoys everyone else in the room. However, if your heart yearns for the pre-soft-key era, this may help you to re-experience the warm sentimentality of days-gone-by.</para>
