In Xorg 6.9, full screen scrolling worked perfectly. Super smooth. It worked smoothly in any terminal including gnome-terminal. When running a timed cat, I could output /usr/share/dict/words in seconds. Both Debian and Ubuntu recently switched to Xorg 7.0. Now, it takes 24 seconds to scroll the words file... Here is the weird thing. DVD playback, mpeg playback, window movement, even scrolling in Firefox are perfectly fast. Even 3D is fully supported. It's just Scrolling in terminals or word processors that are DOG SLOW. When doing so, the X process takes 99% of my cpu... I have posted to debian and ubuntu bug lists with no help. Sure, if I run my laptop in 1024x768 resolution, scrolling is fine. But I don't want to run my system that way... <BR><BR>Something seems to be wrong with the i810 module in Xorg 7.0. Can anyone please help me? I am at witts end. I run gnome-terminal and ssh daily, 8 hours a day. It is S L O W.<BR><BR>Please help,<BR>Chris<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
