[Bug 353449] Re: lyx 1.6.x impossibly slow

 

You can test LyX's development version (do not use for any serious work
and expect the worst) by using this PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~lyx-devel/+archive/ubuntu/daily

Install the lyx2.3pre package.

Whether it fixes the issues or does not fix the issues, the developers
would be very interested in knowing. Please write an email to lyx-
devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and reference this bug.

Sorry for the annoying slowness, and thanks a lot for your offer to help
test!

Title:
  lyx 1.6.x impossibly slow

Status in lyx package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lyx

  I am using lyx 1.6.1 on Ubuntu 8.10. This program used to be my do-
  everything software, but it has become unusably slow.  That is,
  keystrokes are even delayed in displaying when I type.  The rest of
  the system is fine, and LyX didn't used to have such a problem. I'm
  not sure where to start in debugging this.

   apt-cache policy lyx
  lyx:
    Installed: 1.6.1-1~intrepid1
    Candidate: 1.6.1-1
