lapitopi gyuszk # snice -15 X After doing this, I ran htop and it told me that my X11 was running with -15 niceness. I experience better "responsiblity" under all of X11 (kde, firefox, konsole, anything). For example switching from an existing Firefox window to (for ex.) Konsole or Xchat is much faster. I have to add, I own a very slow computer, so I have to do everything to speed up my system. It is very slow even with WinXP+official drivers. 2008/5/14 Uwe Thiem <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Tuesday 13 May 2008, Andrey Falko wrote: > > On Tue, May 13, 2008 at 4:02 PM, Uwe Thiem <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On Tuesday 13 May 2008, Abraham Gyorgy wrote: > > > > Hello guys, in which configuration file can I set a nice level > > > > for X11?
