Interview with Matthew Kille - AmigaOS 4.0 GUI Design : Comment 30 of 46 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Kjetil on 18-Jun-2003 08:35 GMT | In reply to Comment 7 (corpse): The most common problem is memory suffocations, check the amount arable to Linux, it might be that Linux kernel have not detected all your ram,
Add the line in lilo “append mem=256M” if you have 256MB of memory, one more thing you can do it reconfigure the serves started when Linux boots, turn off every thing you don’t commonly use like samba, ftp, http (apache), etc server applications, this thing use lots of chase as well, make shore you install an official version of gfx driver from the gfx card provider, do not use the GPL’ed version it not fast, on slow and old computer make shore to install an old version of Linux it more tuned to the performance and memory usage of an old computer.
Check that you have compiled all the drivers for your hardware inn to the Linux kernel, enable DMA for your harddrives, make shore that you have V1.0 or better of you Linux hardware drivers and not the alfa/beta version. Read the kernel documentations.
Type ‘xman lilo’ some x-windows terminal,
Try different Linux distributions some versions of Linux are slower then otters I’m not kidding you.
PS. There large book about issues like this start reading the howto files and man files, and stop writhing clue less bullshit. |
