Under debian unstable which I constantly upgrade. The gnome-terminal redraw (not function, just drawing) slowed to a crawl. It happened at the time the gnome 2.4 logo appeared about 1 week ago. To give a comparison, I started gnome-terminal, then Konsole, konsole was up showing a bash prompt in less than 50% of the time. -- Thanks KenF OpenOffice.org developer -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
