hello list,
I have a 64 bit AMD Athlon xp machine with 64 bit Fedora core
3 installed .The cds have been purchased as a set of 8 cds including the
sources.After installation what I find is:
1.The machine boots up VERY slowly.
2.Graphics display the previous windows shutdown screen if I reboot
from windows.
3.The machine runs very slow as if it were to be a 386 machine
although have 256 MB ram (192 for programs and 64 for vga).Can I tune
any proc entries and improve the performance safely?
4.Whenever I try to copy a cd from linux it fails everytime
reporting some kind of seek errors,but the same cd would get copied in
windows.Is there any default switch to cp which I have to override?
5.When I shutdown/init 0 the machine it simply reboots.
I suspect the drivers for my graphics is not
present.Is it possible?
Thanks in advance.
-kaushal.
