Is that 2mb of ram in the client??? Or 2 mb of video ram? 2mb is so far from adequate you can turn on swapping but your still asking a lot from so little. Try to get at least 8 mg (I would shoot for 32) You still have to have enough resources to run the X end of things and I don't think your problem(s) are even network related. More ram! Matt
