System Slows Down

2003-03-27 Thread DanSV

Hey, I just installed debian 3.0, upgraded to testing, put on a custom 2.4.20 kernel, with nvidia-glx all up and running, and I am almost all set. One thing though. Every so often, things will slow to a CRAWL, and then poof, go back to normal. WHAT IS THIS? How can I stop it? Whatever clever prog

I have the 2.2.14 kernal running, and can't see all of my ram: DIMM1: 128mb PC100 DIMM2: 32mb PC100 DIMM3: I see 64 mb. The system bios detects 162 and change. (If of use: I have oboard 3D AGP graphics sharing 8mb main memory.) Help! (If adding something to /etc/lilo.conf will help, please show
