I need to run beyond compare on a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 which I access using ssh from a Windows-7 machine.
I already use X-windows to run various GUI applications on Linux which display on the Windows-7 screen. The windows machine is running Cygwin/X (1.18.4) as a X server all apps appear to work quite well.
However beyond compare 4.19 is almost unusably slow. For instance, although the initial screen appears in reasonable time, if I bring up the "help->about" screen the dialog box appears but is blank. Dragging the box around the screen causes it to refresh and its contents appear. Most aspects of the interface take seconds to respond or require moving boxes about.
I verified the issue using whatever X-server is within MobaXterm_v9.4. Same behaviour.
Is this a known problem? Is there a work around?
