Whenever I scroll from one Xterm to another, it seems to take _forever_ because of all the disk access that is going on. I am running on a 386-40 (AMD. of course) and my unix partition is on an 80MB maxtor IDE.. any clues as to why X386 is so slow? -Drew wigodsky@cwis.unomaha.edu (or) wigodsky@unomaha.edu -- /--------------------------------------------------------\ | Andrew Wigodsky | | wigodsky@cwis.unomaha.edu | \--------------------------------------------------------/
