I don't notice any sort of delay when switching between text vtys, or changing keyboard focus in X. I've been using 4BSD the entire time. Are you switching between X and text vty's? There's always been a delay there, worse on my amd64 box than i386, but I don't do that regularly; much easier to just pop another xterm :) -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
