Ubuntu / Laz 0.9.24 / 100Mbps LAN

I have tried to establish a remote connection using an Ubuntu machine as the server with Lazarus installed, and a WinXP machine with TightVNC viewer. Typing in the IDE editor is a nightmare; you have to push each button for about a second to get it to show up in the editor.

On the other hand, this problem does not show up when typing in Compiler Options dialog box or in other applications. Must be either a Synedit or Lazarus editor issue.

Any ideas?

I have noticed as well that several keys such as Delete, Enter, Space bar, Arrow keys, Home, PageUp, etc... do not suffer from this problem. The Tab key, all alphanumeric keys are almost unusable.

Probably a lot of overhead with SynEdit would be my guess although I'm no expert here.

I guess not as some keys exhibit this behavior and others don't (see my previous follow-up post), and if you just press a key from the former group, then it is not guaranteed to have it appear in the editor. You have to try several times in order to succeed.

I will try. However, oddly enough, just before I started writing this message, the problem disappeared. Figure that out!
