Hi to the group.

        Although I have been reading the group messages for some time now this
is my first message to the group.

        I wonder if anyone who may have tried a similar configuration of
equipment as above has experienced a result similar to that of which I
will describe when attempting to run X-Windows and Linuxconf in a
terminal window?

        I have RedHat v6 and when in the Command mode the OS executes as fast
as DOS does when I boot up in DOS.  When I start X-Windows I find that
X-Windows is quite a bit slower than Win95 on the same machine.  Then,
while in X-Windows, I switch to a terminal and try Linuxconf, Linuxconf
is simply unusable.

        To give you an idea: if I am in Linuxconf and click on PPP in order to
configure PPP it takes about 5 minutes for the first screen on the right
pane to materialize.

        It appears that one can barely run X-Windows on a 486 and simply
shouldn't even consider running Linuxconf in a terminal window.  Its
speed is simply is not acceptable.  This is what I have experienced.

        Any comments from the group?
