Thanks for your reply. Some observations: 1. I managed to install 1.0.13 doing "sudo yum --releasever=7.1 install xpra" (had to manually install python-crypto before it would work but that's all) I had tried something similar before editing winswitch.repo and replacing "baseurl=http://winswitch.org/dists/CentOS/$releasever/$basearch/" with "baseurl=http://winswitch.org/dists/CentOS/7.1/$basearch/" but to my surprise yum still wanted to install version 2.5.3 (and failed as mentioned before when I tried to force yum to install 1.0.13)
2. I have a Konsole window receiving lots of output from a program and therefore scrolling fast. In 1.0.13 there is no problem with that. In 2.5.3 it always hangs a bit between screen updates. Also in 2.5.3 I sometimes receive messages about my connection being slow with some options what to do about it. I've never seen those in 1.0.13 3. In 2.5.3 when I have menus hitting the bottom of the screen, I will have a vertical offset between the mouse-pointer and the selected entry (see attached screenshots -- the mouse pointer is 6-7 entries higher than the selection). That does not happen in 1.0.13. It might be worth mentioning that I have an (unusual?) setup of one horizontal (main) monitor and one vertical on the left, so there are screen coordinates on the left monitor extending below and above the main screen. If you have any suggestions, I can go back to 2.5.3. and try them out. But I will be on vacation for one week starting tomorrow, so I would do that afterwards. Thanks for maintaining and supporting this nice and very useful piece of software!
