Re: Debian 9 stretch screen flicker on w3m and command line applications

slow with Xorg using > 70 % of the CPU. I see this issue with kernel 4.9.0-4. Smilar thing has been reported: As mentioned elsewhere kernel 4.9.0-3 doesn't show this problem; then, a temporary workaround is boot the system with a previous kernel <= 4.9.0-3 Best regards, Tino From: Tino Calancha Date: Tue, 02 Jan 2018 19:31:46 +0900 Message-ID: <87h8s4sga5@gmail.com>

Hello, I want to try and install debian. As I have a rather old computer (i486, 4mb ram and 60 mb Hard disk), I don't think I have room for both dos/windows and linux so I want to remove dos completely first. This means I don't have anything to fall back on when installing linux doesn't work. Coul

use the kernel based NFS server though. (I noticed the 2.2beta37 as well) Bye, Tino.

Re: Quicktime player for Linux?

a 80Mb mov when your total memory > + swap is 70 Mb. It just plain dies. That's what the -f switch is for... (yet, it is nonsense to have this as default) Bye, Tino.

/var/log/boot.msg or a similar file. If not, run "dmesg >/var/log/boot.msg" inside some init script. HTH, Tino.

Re: 1 swap vs. 2 swap partitions

swapping code. If you activate 2 swap partitions with equal priority, all swapping will get distributed equally to those partitions - that might give some performance increase, of course! (add parameter pri=xx to /etc/fstab swap entry.) HTH. Tino.

This gets more complicated... I think looking into expect will be neccessary then. But it might(!) be possible to have a shell script talking to ftp and responding to it's answers... Bye, Tino.

Re: AMD-K6 Bogomips problem solved (sort of)

ut your processors real performance. So, I guess, the calibration loop used for calculation BogoMIPS is somehow broken if you compile 2.0.36 for 686 instead of 586 (as advised in Help to "Processor type"). You probably haven't lost any performance (apart from possible speedups 2.2.0 might bring along). Bye, Tino.
