I am running AMD Duron 750 MHz, 128 RAM with SuSE 10.0. Normally it is on acceptable speed, but sometimes (especially when running OpenOffice before extremly important presentations) it is quite slow.
It is probably dead busy paging and swapping. 128Mb is really on the low side, certainly when you're running Openoffice.
First, I do not need any network(at this time) and I haven't got printer and scanner, so can I turn off from the chkconfig the following services?:
cups (for the printer) mdnsd postfix sshd
Yep.
This is what I feel may be turned off, maybe I missed something...(I can post my chkconfig output, if you need)
Besides, do I need six mingettys, can I turn them off from /etc/inittab and leave only one?
Yes, you can turn them off.
Also there is so much files in my /dev, but I haven't got so many devices, does it eats resources?
Nope. I don't think any of this will make your system go much faster - for Openoffice you simply need more RAM. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
