Re: [arch-general] Dmenu vs. KMS
Same here with x86-video-ati-6.14.1 and HD4670, but I don't normally use such long lines with dmenu. I wonder whether anyone else has missed this delay, because you didn't describe what you see in your first message. Yeah, my mistake. With short lines everything's ok.

Excerpts from Stan's message of 2011-04-27 17:53:56 +0200: Hi, guys. Have some troubles with dmenu(4.2.1-1), stock kernel(2.6.38.4-1) and perhaps xf86-video-ati(6.14.1-1): dmenu lags. Vertical listing is really pain in the ass(latency ~1 sec) and with blob everything works just fine. If anyone has the same here i'll post it to suckless's or x.org's bugzilla.

Re: [arch-general] Dmenu vs. KMS
I'm not getting any lag with the same versions of dmenu and kernel26. I'm using xf86-video-intel though, so maybe that makes a difference.
