This default value is set to 300 ms. On my Xserver, the default value is
660 ms and by default in my distrib it's set to 500 ms. So, indeed, the
default value of the ati_remote is quite small. Maybe you could increase
FILTER_MAX to 10 (= 600 ms) in order to have something saner?

Well, this value was chosen because it matches what the hardware does
: as explained in the comments, the hardware generates exactly 5
events for the first keypress (spaced by ~50ms if I recall correctly).

At least on my hardware (=> Vendor=0bc7 ProdID=0004 Rev= 1.00), the
current default value match exactly what I'm expecting (never had the
problem : "if you do anything but barely tap the button you can get
multiple events reported").
Just a thought : perhaps some models are more sensitive than others
(and so the default should be made dependent on the exact remote
model)... what is your hardware id ?

Best regards,

Vincent
