Bug#682816: xserver-xorg-video-intel: Slow rendering of applications using Bitmap fonts.
Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Followup-For: Bug #682816
I ran into the a similar issue in that gvim was redrawing windows extremely
slow. This issue happened when I set the guifont to Terminus and reports
such as [0] pointed to xserver-xorg-video-intel as the culprit.
Luckily the problem seems to be fixed in version 2:2.20.2-1 of
xserver-xorg-video-intel. This bug is quite annoying and I would very much
like to see it fixed in wheezy. I am, however, unsure how to proceed and any
help in doing so would therefore be welcomed.
