My understanding is that the current KDE is NOT multi-thread aware. This, of course, means that you can have 64 processors but only one will be used. The next MAJOR number release should fix this... DL -- The Linux C Mailing Lists Have Moved mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=subscribe The Linu

Try swapoff'ing it and running xterm. If the problem still exists, it's most likely network lag. If it fixes the problem, try deleting the partition, making two 1GB ones in its place, and mkswap'ing and swapon'ing them. Don't forget to change the /etc/fstab entries to reflect the change.

I have a quad pentium with 4 gigs of ram with 2 gigs of swap space running 6.1 with a kernel patch to recognize the 4G. I don't know what patch was made, I didn't do it. When you log onto the console X runs REALLY slow ( 5 seconds to close a x-term after typing exit). If I try to re-boot the sy
