Like I said, viewing photoalbums or streaming seems to be okay but
working on a document (this is via terminal server) is very slow. It is
workable I guess and one could get used to it but it's still quite
annoying. I was hoping there was some parameter somewhere I could set
to enable characters to be locally echoed when typing.
Yes, this is a very bad latency. There's no way to enable local character
echo, since the client has no idea where the keyboard focus is going
or how the application receiving the keyboard input wants to handle
it. It would be bad if your characters echoed while typing in a
password, for instance.
I've worked successfully with up to 300ms latency, but at that point
in my experience it becomes unpleasant when doing interactive work.

thanks again.

What's the latency of that link. You might get better response using
CDE over Gnome.

Hi all,
I've tested a couple of Sunray units (lent to me for evaluation) over
a satellite WAN link. I find that they work incredibly well except
for document editing. The key stroke delay is horrendous. Is there a
way to have the units display the characters locally ? (local echo,
like in the phone line/modem terminal days) This would improve the
user experience by many factors. :o)
thanks in advance.
