RE: X on embedded Systems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



   Are you using startx?  If so, is it faster when running XFree86
directly without any clients?

   I can't recall ever seeing X start up so slowly.  How fast
is this CPU?   Does this system have a disk drive?  If so, are
you using DMA?  My first instinct would be that this is a disk
problem or you're starting more than you think you're starting.
Which XFree86 driver is this?
