> my Windoze workstation, the refresh on the screen is very very slow. So slow itI've upgraded to fedora core two and i guess they've moved from XFree86 to Xorg.
When I try to use Reflection X or Hummingbird eXceed to X into my LINUX box from
is unusable. For example, when I type an ls at the command prompt, it draws the results line by line probably just a little quicker than I could type the results myself!
Any suggestions? All help would be welcome ...
I've found that both FC1 and 2 were painfully slow to do remote X apps through Exceed if they used the GTK2 antialiased fonts. Apps which used standard X fonts were plenty quick, and if you changed a slow app to not do anti-aliasing then everything got a lot quicker.
If you're only after a terminal in X then try an xterm rather than something like gnome-terminal and see if this has any effect.
