Hi, i have my system partitions (all except /boot) encrypted with loop-aes. Now, this setup worked fine on my SuSE 8.0 distro (of course copying was a bit slower then without encryption). Now, I installed gentoo on my system, using the same encryption method. The Problem: When copying files, in fact everytime i get disc activity my system goes very 'sluggish', meaning i type stuff, and see it all appear 2 or 3 sec later....meaning i move the mouse and it doesnt, but jumps after a while. I was wondering why this could be, and how I might fix it....Changing the Priority of the loop? processes from -9 to 0 didnt help very much :(. love to be helped :D Peter -- Extreme feminine beauty is always disturbing. -- Spock, "The Cloud Minders", stardate 5818.4 - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
