For some workloads, that's completely to be > expected. Latency of keystrokes. I press the key and the feedback is oo so slow. In my case it's TTS feedback, not on screen, but same principle. Both machines have the exact same TTS board (ISA) and software drivers, both running FC4, but this was also true FC 3. The 348Mb box is snappy. I press [char], I hear [char] echoed out the TTS. On the slow machine, I would warrant there's a delay of hundreds of ms. Not measured, but I'd warrant on the order of 400-700 ms. > > (I'm still wondering which the original poster thinks is a "higher speced" > machine....) > > > > -- > Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> > Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/> > Current office temperature: 90 degrees Fahrenheit. > > -- > fedora-test-list mailing list > fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: > http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list -- Janina Sajka Phone: +1.202.494.7040 Partner, Capital Accessibility LLC http://www.CapitalAccessibility.Com Bringing the Owasys 22C screenless cell phone to the U.S. and Canada.
