This is a pain when scrolling up or down or on a line, you don't know where you are until you let go of the key. $ emacs --version GNU Emacs 26.3 on a Dell Precision M4800 i7 with 32mb of memory, running ubuntu 20.04 LTS I have not been able to find a solution to this with google. I have to slow my keyboard repeat rate down to about 7 cps to be able to see the characters. Thanks in advance, Steve
