Hi Mario,=0A=0AThere are planty ways to make an xorg.conf, for example to n=
vida vga cards there is a special apllication which generates the xorg.conf=
.=0ATry to type top and check out which processes uses the more CPU, also c=
hecg out  Load Avg.=0A=0ALaci=0A=0A=0A=0A________________________________=

 Re: freeBSD 6.4=0A=0AHi D=E1nielisz:=0AThe freeBSD is on another hard driv=
e and I am going to review the configurations, and send a txt file if you d=
on't mind.=0AI remember Xorg process was busy all the time, I have to check=
 it again.=0ALast time my Load on Firefox was just GMAIL.=0AMario=0A=0A=0A=
=0A2009/3/28 D=E1nielisz L=E1szl=F3 <laszlo_danielisz@yahoo.com>=0A=0AHi Ma=
rio!=0A=0ADid you installed the right vga driver? Did you make de right xor=
g.conf for Xserver? Please check this.=0AAnyways, you can send your top pro=
cesses, but I think that the Firefox uses the more from CPU, by the way, wh=
at is your load?=0A=0A=0ALaci=0A=0A=0A=0A________________________________=

ct: freeBSD 6.4=0A=0A=0AHi D=E1nielisz=0A=0AI got this email of you on MAR =
13, and today I got the GNOME running on freeBSD 6.4.=0AI also installed KD=
E4 but haven't used it yet.=0A=0AMy main question this time is about the wh=
ole freeBSD.  As a matter of fact it is running=0Athe CPU above 50% as I st=
art GNOME with no more application involved. I am right now=0Aemailing this=
 from GMAIL/google using firefox loaded on GNOME  2.22.3 and the CPU is =0A=
75% busy. So it is kind of slow and lagging. I am using this ASUS machine:=
=0A=0AAMD Athlon(TM) XP 2000+=0AMemory  1 GB=0A=0AWhich when I use windows =
XP as OS, does the same with CPU involved just 6%. I am sure=0AfreeBSD shou=
ld do this much faster than Windows XP, but I have no idea how to detect wh=
at=0Ais wrong. I can also send the list of processes running on this 6.4 wh=
ich i guess most of them are=0Anormal. and the only application open is fir=
efox connected to GMAIL . Any idea what should I check?=0A=0AI like to have=
 a UNIX like OP. System to work on my JAVA programs. That I was doing with =
WIN-XP=0Aso far. And I have WIN2003 also on another ASUS Core i7 machine. I=
 want to know if the performance =0Aof freeBSD is very hardware related, th=
en what type of motherboard / chip / CPU ..etc is recommended?  =0AI used t=
o work with UNIX on SUN machines while at university, and I expect freeBSD =
to function almost =0Athe same, and even better these days concerning the t=
ime and new technologies but I am missing some =0Ainfo to get it done. =0AT=

6.4 recognizes all components as I went through log files. This is a =0Ates=
