Hi

Since a few weeks I'm the proud owner of a 17" monitor. Finally having 
an opportunity to skip 640x480-on-14", I switched to using 1024x768.
Xfree produced an image OK, no problem with that. 

Problem is that when the VGA card is switched to 0 waitstate, and 
Speedup is enabled in Xconfig, the system has very reproducible 
hangups when the display is panning etc (in general: busy) and a 
lot of disk I/O is occuring. The VGA card is an Orchid Prodesigner IIs.
The system a 486/25 with 32Mb ram & 1542A SCSI.

Switching to 'non-turbo' on the VGAcard resolves the problem. 
Unfortunately it is quite a bit slower this way :(

Any thoughts?

Wilko
