I have a 10 megabaud net circuit, but the videos play like a 28.8k dialup. Getting about 1/4 second of video and audio, 3/4 second of frozen silence now. Repeat till I'm driven out of my skull and hit the quit button. Or are there any options I can set in an /etc/X11/xorg.conf that would help? FWIW, turning off the hardware accel in FF actually helps. Currently on an X86_32, 3.12.6 PAE 32 bit kernel. Thanks. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
