Since the windows 7 host, I expirience a gigantic lag when using terminals or using x11 in general that I reverted back to putty terminals. (Of which is nothing wrong but multiple desktops are quite handy instead of 20 putty's on the taskbar)

Things I did to check but didn't have the desired effect:

- updated local hardware drivers
- tried several x11 client solutions
- playing around with x11 connection parameters
- checked on other hosts (also win 7 64 bit)
- ...

just curious -- why not just export xterms to your windows box? you can easily cut and paste between xterm windows from different servers and even into ms windows apps ... and the network and cpu loads are much less ... it's been helpful to me especially with scripting or sending screen debug info to somebody ... you do need to change the prompts though so each window will always tell you the hostname ... fixing the xterm title line would also be a big help ...

anyways ... just my 2 cents ...

happy new year!
