so i have 2.4.8-26 and am using Reiserfs. haven't seen any trouble except
when i use realplayer i start using swap, until then no swap at all.
(512megs) so how bad is the vm speed problem? is it worth updating?

Do you mean that when you click on, for example, Konqueror, you get a
startup box on the kicker
ok, to answer my own question, i added the 2.4.17-7mdk kernel to my system
and it seems markedly faster, though i haven't actually timed it. open
office for example seems to open about twice as fast.
just in case anyone wondered:-)

I think it is very slow on my machine (K6-II 450, 128 RAM, TNT2, 20GB
Quantum, with kernel 2.4.3). How can I optimise it so it can load and run
applications faster?
Thanks in advance.

The best
You and me both Terry... I've adopted XFCE as my window manager of choice for
my 'processor challenged' laptop. It is considerably faster than KDE or
Gnome, prettier than ICEwm and easier to use than Enlightenment or Blackbox
IMO (And the screen savers are quite funky)
Two downsides are that
