I was surprised that no one replied on this list about this
issue...so I wanted to repost it ONE time. Someone out there must
also be seeing this and if its normal..I would like to know...(and if
its normal..why)
REPOST:
After further testing, its not only the console, but also over SSH.
(on the same LAN segment) - so that would eliminate a few possibilities.
I noticed this awhile back on 3.9-current and it is still there in
the latest snapshot I tried (4/22)...I am hoping someone has seen this..
I installed from the snapshot and didnt customize a thing. When the
machine is done loading (IBM rack server)...I simply logged in (as
root at the moment).
I am not running serial or headless. I have a normal monitor/keyboard
(PS2) plugged in.
When I type at the console to begin to setup the machine, the
characters do not follow me in real time as I type. Its like I am on
an overseas long distance 300 baud dialup line.
There is quite a delay and sometimes I can type several words and
then a few seconds later - they show up.
This does not happen on the same machine if I install 3.8.
I have (4) identical machines (make/model/ram/cpu/hard drives) and
they all work fine with 3.8 - it is only past 3.8 that I noticed this.
Any thoughts?
