Still no luck solving this problem. I tried recompiling the kernel, but after ~8 hours of compiling time (on a P200 w/64mb) I got an error stating the kernel was too large... Arrggghhh!!!! The system doesn't seem to slow at the command line. Only in KDE is there a noticeable slowdown. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if that's just because the CLI is inherently faster, or it's due to a problem with K.
Ok, I finally figured out what the problem was. My first impulse had been that the system was slow at the console as well as in X. Further experimentation showed that it was actually fine until I launched X, so that narrowed the scope of the search considerably. Upon experimentation, I discovered that the newest version of the SVGA server was incompatible with my hardware. Going back to version 3.3.1 solved the problem.
Thanks for everyone's suggestions!
Ah.. just glad you finally figured it out. Let's face it. It's always much less stressful to go through a dark alley with a few friends along. `*8> -- Brad Shelton On Line Exchange http://online-isp.com -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
