Thank you all so much. I got Mplayer working, and even finally got up2date to work. 3d game performance (UT2004) is still terrible, (p3 1200mhz, 320mb ram, 128MB GeForce4 ti4600 running latest drivers from nvidia website.) -----Original Message----- From: Alexandre Strube [mailto:surak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2004 9:34 PM To: Fedora-list Subject: Re: Slow performence Em Ter, 2004-02-17 às 00:38, Ron Henderson escreveu: > 1.) while running X I am using about 300mb of memory.

It will use all your free memory for cache and buffers, thus lowering disk usage (and maintaing your swap low) The games you're talking about, these games use 3d stuff? It can be very possible that it's a opengl game and your video board is not using it (for instance, chromium and tux-racer). Try installing frozen-bubble and see if it's slow. > 2.)

Click an empty space of the gnome bar and select "add to panel - internet - terminal server client". -- []s Alexandre Ganso 500 FOUR vermelha - Diretor Steel Goose Moto Group -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
