it seems pretty strange, but that printout didn't give the actual
information i was observing !!! i noticed it only after i sent it,
usually i get about <5 % cpu from xmms...
but the thing about xmms is, that i keep really large list of mp3s (almost
2000) and i like keeping a lot of windows in netscape...
im pretty concerned about resourses in X, and whole overall speed ( with
my 64megs of RAM:(( , can anyone recommend me a good speedy X window
manager for this reason? Im currently using OpenWindow, do more functional
xwm's(like Gnome) take a lot more resourses, so i would see the
significant difference?
thanks you for all your help.., ill try to troubleshot my system as soon
as i have enough time for that.
