Using cinnamon-2.6.8 , in cinnamon-settings -> keyboard, changing key repeat speed or delay have no effect. Changing via gsettings org.cinnamon.settings-daemon.peripherals.keyboard repeat-interval and org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.keyboard repeat-interval have no effect either. I'm not sure how to debug. Any ideas what could be wrong?
Do you get any error when launching the control center from a terminal?
Well, now it is working though I can't explain why because I have not updated anything since yesterday, have not rebooted, don't think I changed anything relevant. Anyway, you could just close this bug. But in case you are still interested, I do get some errors running cinnamon-settings. See the following startup messages, and (where it says "Loading keyboard module") additional errors in keyboard settings module: ~ $ python2.7 /usr/lib64/cinnamon-settings/cinnamon-settings.py /usr/lib64/cinnamon-settings/cinnamon-settings.py:178: Warning: The property GtkEntry:primary-icon-stock is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore.

The warnings should be reported directly to upstream and that errors are because of the optional USE flags for optional features
