Hi again! I feel I must thank everyone for all the great answers I recieved regarding my slow FreeBSD machine! THANKS! Anthony: Sorry, I totally forgot to write that I was using 4.8, but Ill keep that in mind 'til next time I try out 5.0 Miguel Mendez: Blatant troll?!? Moahahaha! Gotta remember that, sorry me poor English! Patches, patches?!? We don't need no stinking patches!!! ;o) Jan Grant: You requested feedback, here goes; options HZ=1000 did little or no difference to my system, but if it wasn't for you I wouldn't even have tried it in the first place! =o) Stijn Hoop: Added that and a little more to the kernel and make.conf. Works like a charm! Antoine Jacoutot: I tried that, but I can't really seem to make it happen... Thanks anyway! Vallo Kallaste: I know! Strange, isn't it? =o) Lucas Holt: Yeah, well, I already stripped my kernel bigtime, and I agree that it makes WAY difference. Just like making world did! I figured that I could use Gnome2 and/or KDE3, and it would have almost the performance of Windows, but I guess I was wrong! =o) However, I mainly use Blackbox or Enlightenment. Class for NULL! Bah! =o) Last but greatest... Rob: You did it! I never even thought of that! I can't believe it! THANKS! =o) Never thought the dri/drm would make that much difference! Now I run my 4.8 just as fast as Linux ever did, with Enlightenment (e16 or e17) and the movies are as smooth as ever! Performance in X was greatly improved with the http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/ stuff! That's it! No more Linux, no more Windows... though I'm kinda curious about Mac OS X, only I don't have a mac, so I guess I'll stick to E! See ya! /Jalle ============================= Kristofer "Jalle" Jarl defacto@home.se http://archimedes.rsn.bth.se =============================
