------- Additional Comments From Vivien_Mallet excite com  2006-08-30 14:05 -------
I have the same problem sometimes with KMail 1.9.3 (Debian package, etch) and half \
the time (!) with KMail 1.7.2 (Debian package, sarge) which I actually decided not to \
use anymore. I am running KMail 1.9.3 on my laptop, which includes an ATI Radeon \
Mobility X700 managed by the proprietary drivers. I am running KMail 1.7.2 remotely \
over SSH. I launch it from my laptop on a remote Dell computer (I don't know which \
video card). When I use KMail directly on the Dell computer, I do not experience the \
problem. It appears through my laptop only.

I would want to provide a few details. First, KMail composer becomes indeed very \
slow, but not in all composers. A new composer will run perfectly (at least for one \
minute or so) while the slow one is still open. I sometimes finish to write an email \
in another composer...

Second, the composer gets quite suddenly slow and, after some time, most letters \
appear twice on the screen. If I press 'a', I get 'aa'. The good point is that \
backspace does the same so that I can remove my two 'a' with a single backspace. :) \
Needless to say that it is unusable. I had to stop using KMail remotely and I \
switched to Thunderbird which is very heavy (especially through SSH) but still \
usable...

I noticed that even if the composer is slow and is generating duplicates, this is not \
the case at all for the above line edits (Subject, To, Copy to, etc.). They behave \
perfectly. _______________________________________________
