When XFree86 4.x: a) Supports a reasonable superset of all cards supported by 3.3.6 b) Doesn't halve OpenGL performance on cards like Matrox and nVidia (3dfx sucks so much on both that it's not an issue). c) Doesn't have a configuration tool which confuses new users even more than the old configuration tool did. You forgot one (that happens for me) d) Doesn't take half the CPU while sitting idle. But then again, I suspect it has something to do with the fact I'm running a dual head. -gordon To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message

I had to chuckle at this point. I'm running 3.3.6 and KDE-2.1 on a dual 866 coppermine system. On it, kicker has 95% of the second cpu full time. I wonder what is taking half of your system/ Kent -gordon To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kstewart.urx.com/kstewart/index.html FreeBSD News http://daily.daemonnews.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
