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?
