Package: xfce4-terminal Version: 0.4.5-1 Severity: wishlist It takes around 2 seconds for xfce4-terminal to prepare a usable terminal when opening a new tab or a new window. I wonder if the delay is caused by the delay in creating a new pseudo-terminal with /dev/ptmx.
If so perhaps it is possible to have Terminal create an extra ptty ahead of time in a buffered fashion, so that the delay is experienced only on startup. Thanks for the good work. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xfce4-terminal depends on: ii exo-utils 0.3.107-1 Utility files for libexo ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.11.2-11 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.6-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.88-2.1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexo-0.3-0 0.3.107-1 Library with extensions for Xfce ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.1-1+b1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.3-1+squeeze1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libvte9 1:0.24.3-2 Terminal emulator widget for GTK+ ii libx11-6 2:1.4.1-5 X11 client-side library ii libxfce4util4 4.6.2-1 Utility functions library for Xfce Versions of packages xfce4-terminal recommends: ii dbus-x11 1.4.6-1 simple interprocess messaging syst xfce4-terminal suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
