Subject:   Slow Xfree86 in 16 bpp under FreeBSD 2.2.7-Stable and KDE (STB NVidia-128 AGP)

Hello,

I've got a fairly modern machine (P II - 266) whith an STB NVidia-128
graphics board (4 Megs on AGP).

I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.7 (upgraded to Stable on  Aug 28 19:10) and
Xfree86-3.3.2.

Under KDE-1.0 and with a 16-bit pixel depth, the displacement of windows
is desperately slow (it's like X11 events would pile up some place and
then would be processed later ....). The delay can get up to seconds :
during some seconds AFTER the mouse button is released, the lagging
window continues to move, to catch up with the displacement of the mouse
pointer.

The problem is worse for big windows than for (for example) small images
viewed under GIMP.

I don't get this problem under KDE and 8-bit-pixels, nor under Twm with
either 8- or 16-bit-pixels.

If somebody has an idea ....
