This may be irrelevant, but how much of the memory are you allocating to dom0 in your configuration? I had similar symptoms when running under 64MB. Increasing the amount of memory in my system (I happen to have 256MB for dom0 now) eliminated all of the jerky and slow behaviour. Others have reported no problems, however, when running in low mem conditions. thanks, Nivedita ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
