The host PC is a 1.7GHz P4, with 512MB RAM, so there shouldn't be any problems. It takes about 2 minutes for 'man man' to bring up a page. 4.6.2 and 4.7 both work GREAT, even in X. Any thoughts on why this might be the case?? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
