This bug has finally gone away. It definately works in lucid (fortunately, because downgrading libx11 causes too many other problems). I think it works fine in karmic too. -- X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 241063] Re: X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet)
This is still a problem in Jaunty, with libx11-6 version 2:1.1.99.2-1ubuntu2. Again, downgrading to libx11-6 and libx11-dev version 2:1.0.3-4ubuntu1 from Feisty fixed the problem. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/amd64/libx11-6 Any progress on fixing this? I have had no problems with anything needing XCB but not getting it, can't we just have a clean, non-slow version? -- X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 241063] Re: X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet)
A less hacky way of getting the non-xcb version of libX11-6 is to install older versions of the packages. Look for Martey Dodoo's comment in: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xcb/+bug/88815 I use VNC to connect to a server where I use Matlab and other programs. Upgrading the server from 7.10 Gutsy to 8.04 Hardy made everything terribly slow over VNC. Downgrading the libX11-6 packages to the ones given above sped up everything except Matlab, which is still unusably slow. *sigh* -- X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same problem as described here. The workaround, described by oliford, works for me as well. Thanks! This thread seems to deal with a similar problem in Fedora 7 and onward: http://www.mathworks.ch/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/244711 It is suggested that building libX11 without xcb solves the problem. I haven't been able to try if this fixes the problem in Ubuntu as well. -- X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 241063] Re: X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet)
I've found a workaround for this myself by simply dropping back to the gutsy X11 client library (/usr/lib/libX11.so.6). Just get a copy of that library from gutsy and put it on your (in my case intrepid) machine under a different directory. Then put that directory in the library path eg: mkdir /root/fixTheXClient cp -Pv gutsymachine/usr/lib/libX11* /root/fixTheXClient Then whenever you want to run a program with sensible speed graphics: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/root/fixTheXClient:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH {run your program} You can check it's going to use the right one with: ldd {your_program} -- X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I see exactly the same behaviour with both Hardy and Intrepid.

[Bug 241063] Re: X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet)
This bug is still present in Intrepid. I had hoped the new version of X would have sorted it out, but no. This was both connecting into Interpid from Hardy and vice versa. -- X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 241063] Re: X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet)
It seems i have exactly the same problem. We use Matlab intensivly via ssh (and X-forwarding), but after upgrading to ubuntu hardy 8.04 it is really slow and nearly unusable in a daily matter. We circumvent the problem via using vnc client/server, but this solution is somewhat less flexible. -- X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 241063] Re: X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet)
To clarify that a bit: Running a program on a Gutsy machine displaying on an open Hardy X-Server is fast. Running a program on a Hardy machine displaying on an open Gutsy X-Server is slow. Running a program on a Hardy machine displaying on an open Hardy X-Server is slow. (We only have 1 gutsy machine left) This is after turning off 'Applications->Settings->Login Window->Deny TCP connections to x server' and running 'xhost +' to disable access control.

I've recently upgraded to hardy and am also seeing this. It also occurs if you enable TCP access to the xserver, set DISPLAY on another machine and use the hardy X-server directly. -- X Forwarding Much Slower on Hardy than Gutsy (ssh and telnet) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
