Most things seem to work correctly although i have some questions to ask. I enabled the console mouse in rc.conf and have a console mouse but if i run X with it enabled I get "mouse not found" upon server start. can I have both? I also installed Netscape-communicator4 on this laptop which took alot of juggling to find enough disk space to install it. When i run netscape on it it seems to run VERY slow and the disk drive led lights up on every mouse movement and if I click something it takes a long time for the drive to stop running, like it is swapping heavily. the program top shows cpu ~30% usage and the swap partition is 26M and 60% is used. CPU is 486 DX 50 with cirrus gc6420 chip. is this normal? now can i speed it up so netscape can be used, its unuseable now (too slow). kf7nn@airmail.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
