Hmm...you might also want to start making a swapfile and see if you use it. (they're easy and convenient, and if you never [rarely] swap, there's no performance hit).
Running 16 Mbytes with X and software development will cause swap, figure about 16 Mbytes of swap. If you have space on your system, I run swap in extended partitions and use this swap space for both win95 and linux...(I need to right up what I'm doing). The last time I ran out of VM was with 1.1* and it caused nasty things to happen...make sure you don't run out of space (don't know how we error recover any more). Of course, ram is so cheap now, you can get another 16 Mbyte for about $120 tops. -- marty [EMAIL PROTECTED] Member of the League for Programming Freedom
