Hi, I seem to have a weird problem when using a modem connection and X11 simultaniously. Whenever I start conection on my modem (it's on sio1) while X is running X starts slurping up 50% of CPU time,and the system slows down considerably. This happens for instance as soon as I start seyon, or when ppp starts making an automatic connection. As soon as seyon, ppp, or whatever stops using the modem, X drops back to a modest few % of CPU time. I have no idea how to identify the cause of this problem. It doesn't seem to be a hardware problem; when using the modem in Window'95 there is no slow-down of the system. Can anybody give me a hint? Much obliged.
