When it's a question about asynchronous operations,
timings can matter:
- N770 is much slower than Desktop
- If you're on x86 using DISPLAY variable value with host part (as is
  erronously mentioned in some Maemo docs, see also Maemo bug 22), and/or
  remote display, X server will use inet socket instead of a unix one and
  assumably also disables the use of shared memory.  This will slow
  client image operations (like drawing the widgets) a lot.

Of course the problem could be something else too, like different
SW versions on the target and x86, but I assume you've already
checked that?
