I suspect that you need to install the hardware driver for your graphical card. I experienced gvim (gtk2) screen refresh being very slow on my laptop to the point of being unusable. I could see the lines being refreshed one by one. It happened after my nvidia driver somehow got disabled. Reinstalling the latest nvidia driver made gvim fast again In Ubuntu-10.04, it was only a matter of doing choosing from main menu: System->Administration->Hardware drivers Regards -- Dominique -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
