Jose,
Glad your mouse is working. I had to resort to reinstalling Mandrake to
get
my Kensington to work. I am sure it could have been fixed without the
reinstall if I were a little smarter.<g>
I'm not sure why you are running slow. Everything goes fast for me it
seems.
I have a larger swap drive, 125mb, probably overkill, but have 128mb
memory
on a K6-350. I think I might consider getting more memory as it is
relatively
cheap right now.
Wish I could suggest more............
Brian
