[gentoo-user] gnome-terminal slow scrolling

2003-04-03 Thread Shane Hickey
Okey doke.  This isn't a gentoo-specific question as I have dealt with
this with RedHat also.  Basically, I find myself wanting to select text
from my terminal application quite often and it's too dang slow.  

Like, let's say I'm ssh'd into a remote router or firewall and I want to
show the entire config and then highlight pages of the config and copy
them.  

My problem is that once I click in the gnome-terminal and start dragging
the mouse up to highlight text, it takes friggin' forever.  This is this
specific to gnome-terminal or is there some obscure X setting that I can
change with xset (or something like it).

Has anyone else found themselves cursing this?  Am I just nuts.

Thanks,
