Hi there, have you tryied a newer kernel with -ck2 [1] ? I am also using a -ck patch, 2.6.21-ck2, mostly on 2 machines where i use as desktop and also play games. With -ck2 the experience seems less slugish and more smooth while playing 'second life' and have a bunch of other programs open (mail, a zillion web pages, irc client, feed reader, consoles, ...). The desktop seems more confortable to use than with the vanilla kernel. I also tryed cfs, it's also much better than the vanilla kernel but i still prefer -ck2 for playing second life as it feels more responsive. If you try the -ck2 or SD 1.0 please report your experience. It's nice to hear that people are testing/using these improvements on desktop usage. 1 - ck2 patch to add to vanilla 2.6.21, http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/ck/patches/2.6/2.6.21/2.6.21-ck2/patch-2.6.21-ck2.bz2 PS: I remember i read somewhere that the SD patch (included in -ck) has became stable (version 1.0) with a few small improvements! -- Com os melhores cumprimentos/Best regards, Miguel Figueiredo http://www.DebianPT.org - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
