I am 99% sure this is an X problem. (Written before experimenting): I'm currently experiencing this problem on one of my machines, and am fairly certain it's an xorg-related problem. I have the same versions of xfce4-terminal, libvte9, and libvte-common on both machines. One machine is running xserver-xorg version 1:7.0.22 (which doesn't demonstrate the problem), and the other is using version 1:7.3+2 (and does show the problem).
(After experimenting): I just upgraded the unaffected box to 1:7.3+2 and slow xfce4-terminal drawing started happening on it as well. To be clear, the packages and versions changed during the upgraded follow: [INSTALL] dmidecode [UPGRADE] gcc-4.2-base 4.2-20070609-1 -> 4.2.1-6 [UPGRADE] libgcc1 1:4.2-20070609-1 -> 1:4.2.1-6 [UPGRADE] libsensors3 1:2.10.1-2 -> 1:2.10.4-3 [UPGRADE] libstdc++6 4.2-20070609-1 -> 4.2.1-6 [UPGRADE] libxfont1 1:1.0.0-4 -> 1:1.3.1-1 [UPGRADE] lm-sensors 2.5.4-5 -> 1:2.10.4-3 [UPGRADE] xserver-xorg 1:7.0.22 -> 1:7.3+2 [UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-core 1:1.0.2-8 -> 2:1.4-3 [UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-input-kbd 1:1.0.1.3-2 -> 1:1.2.2-3 [UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-input-mouse 1:1.0.4-3 -> 1:1.2.2-6 [UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-video-nv 1:1.0.1.5-2 -> 1:2.1.5-1 [UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-video-tdfx 1:1.1.1.3-3 -> 1:1.3.0-6 Furthermore, gqview seems to be affected by the same problem (that is, redraws of its image-showing space seem to occur much more slowly than before the upgrade). --xsdg _______________________________________________ Pkg-xfce-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-xfce-devel
