Evolution and firefox are both slow on my system re keyboard input. In took about a minute for the summary line to show up (maybe 1 second per character). In this comment area I'm typing 10 words ahead of what is being displayed. Ditto evolution when trying to type in a new email.
Keyboard entry is fast in geany (IDE) and gnome-terminal -- both X apps. So it isn't all X apps have slow keyboard entry pick up. My system is an ATI 1500 laptop with fglrx for the display controller into X. This as an extremely nasty bug that will make any user quite unhappy. (I had to wait 15 seconds or more for the graphic display to catch up to the end of this sentence just before the parenthesis). CPU pegs out at 100% during the graphic display time of the slow keyboard display. -- Typing in text form in Firefox becomes very slow in Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132053 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
