If you don't find your brand in the kernel configuration, download the appropriate kernel patches for DMA acceleration written by Andre Hedrick, from http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/. Luckily, your kernel version 2.4.17 has a patch available. -Ramesh | | > blacktop:/home/m

PS/2 mouse lagging

2002-03-21 Thread Patrick Lane
Any time there is any hard drive activity, my mouse will freeze up until the hard drive stops being accessed. This has only happened since I've downgraded to woody (reformatted). I do not have a slow computer. I'm running a Athlon 1200, 1 GB of RAM, and UDMA 100 HDDs. I'm also using kernel 2.4.17.
