Hi, When I start an X-based application with its display to a VT1200, it takes between 30 and 60 seconds for the application to get a connection. I think this is extremely long. After the first window has been created, applications behave normally (though a bit slower than on a workstation as can be expected). It this normal behaviour?

They are slow when using LAT off Vax's, but unbearable when using TCP/IP. I've called DEC about it, and they don't have any suggestions or answers. Complex aplications like DECwrite seem to fail regularly on our VT1200's. Also, we had a Cabletron network analyzer up here the other day. Our network is running at about %3 capacity. When we added %10 load to the network (for a total of %13 utilization), all the VT1200's locked up! Our NCD X terminals continued to run, and showed no performance degradation! I would be interested in any perofmance suggestions for the VT1200, our users are howling! Jim Bresee JRB@idx.com
