GAMBIT + win7 = Very slow performance

rieuk · February 23, 2010, 07:12

Hi, using Gambit 2.4.6 with Exceed 2006 on Win 7.

Key error is: Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C

As a consequence Gambit runs very slow on my machine - any ideas?

Windows 7 came out after the last release of Gambit. This doesn't mean it won't run, but only that it could not have been tested .

I am not in Windows 7 yet, are there options (right click on the executable) to run in an XP mode?

They had something like that for Vista.

Is there any solution for this topic?

Yes there is, use ICEM

Ok, I remember I used X-ming instead of Exceed. It was faster but not perfect at all. However the newes version of Exceed should works perfect.
