Hi again, Felix, Thomas and Ilya, thank you so much for the suggestions.
>Try a substantially different environment, one without GDM, and as little of >>GTK as possible (QT-based, unlike XFCE4), e.g. TDE: >https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/DebianInstall I see that they don't have stable packages for Stretch / Sid as of now. Will probably try the preliminary packages for the next release and see how it goes. Was thinking of putting on KDE, but that's quite huge. >Only more wild guesses, maybe input/event handling? >GTK_IM_MODULE=xim GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS=1 gedit > >You could also export GTK_DEBUG and GDK_DEBUG, see >https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.8/gtk-running.html Will definitely be interesting to see the results of these environment variables. >You could try to use wireshark and/or tcpdump to dump and ana- >lyze what's going on on the connection on the ssh server side. >In fact, DISPLAY localhost:10.0 points to ad- >dress/port 127.0.0.1:6010 , which could be easily captured. This will definitely be interesting.....this will surely give a wealth of information, hope it's something we can interpret and use to pinpoint the problem. I will probably try this once am done trying the above two tests.
