I would propose a new thread for system speedups for client boxes... apps to install/remove, services to start/disable. I'm using my box as a pure client, yahoo mail, personal applications, some development, but no server services. Yes! I am finally on my Fedora Core4 machine, finally! Got PPPoe working to a router, as suggested (THANX!) to the DSL modem. I'm afraid to reboot for fear it'll go away. <chuckles> So, I'm looking for the most speed I can get out of this aging PIII, both hardware and software. My ole 486/DXII with 16 megs of memory seemed to run faster, back when. Of course, that was pre- KDE / Gnome /ALSA. So, any bits of info will be highly welcome.
