Hello,
I have a
Pentium III 450Mhz,
128 RAM,
256 Swap (one partition),
7.7 gigs IDE mounted on /
AOpen PG128  with 4megs of ram.

I actually managed to get a standard VGA 8bit server going. but the problem 
is that it is soooo slow. It takes over 30 minutes for the KDE interface to 
come up!  And once it is up, any move of the mouse takes about 2 minutes to 
process.
I did a telnet from a remote PC and ran TOP from the prompt. this is what I got

last pid:   470;  load 
averages:  0.80,  0.53,  0.41                                   up 
0+01:18:52  22:02:24
46 processes:  2 running, 43 sleeping, 1 zombie
CPU states: 100.0% user,  0.0% nice,  0.0% system,  0.0% interrupt,  0.0% idle
Mem: 13M Active, 24M Inact, 15M Wired, 8351K Buf, 71M Free
Swap: 256M Total, 256M Free

   PID USERNAME PRI NICE  SIZE    RES STATE    TIME   WCPU    CPU COMMAND
   395 root     102   0  7536K  6508K RUN     16:31 97.90% 97.90% XF86_SVGA
   400 root       2   0  4600K  3816K select   0:02  0.00%  0.00% kwm

The swap is not being used AT ALL!
what's wrong?

thanks
Marcelo
