Massimo,
Here is a small patch to sort of implement autorepeat for the volume buttons.
It just adds a -r | --repeat <count> option to i8kbuttons. With the
default timeout and -r 1 I get a reasonable autorepeat function.
The name/docs might not be optimal but I leave that to you if you choose
to include the patch. It is agains i8kutils-1.2.

Specifies the interval in milliseconds at which the daemon checks the
button status. Useful values are in the range of 50\-200. Default is 100.

+\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-repeat\fR <\fIcount\fP>
+Enables autorepeat (0 is off is default). While holding down one of the volume
+buttons, the volume is changed every count timeoutintervals. So with -t 100 -r 2
+it will change every 200 milliseconds.
