USB to VGA

[Kevin Gordon]

Folks:

A bit more info.  This echo response issue is only happening in my
environment when the external monitor is plugged in, and happens on either
test monitor, and using either Startech.

For the test, I'm just typing 123123123 repeatedly into terminal.  This
symptom happens both on gnome and sugar terminal screens.

It's a 'production' XO-1 with the three pad trackpad..  It is a virgin
fs-update install of build 358

However, I have now ascertained that It is not actually a  'delay' it's a
full pause.  Meaning, when it stops echoing it *stops*;  then, only when I
hit the next character, do both the previous and the current characters
echo.  To be clear, if I type 123, and only the 1 and 2 appear,  then when I
hit 1, both the 3 and the 1 then appear.

I will try the tackpad wiggle, and also try the whole test again this
time on the XO 1.5 later today.

Unfortunately,  for now, Work interferes again :-)
