ide/bus problem with hp pavilion 781.se (pentium4 2GHz) very slow with mdk 9.0
I've tried out Mandrake 9.0 RC 2 and 3 and now finally the stable 9.0 on my HP
Pavilion 781.se and something seems to be very wrong with the bus/chipset
drivers. I'm no expert on the matter so that is just a guess.
File access (IDE or USB storage) like copying a number of files, or just
installing some bigger package like mozilla, fills the RAM and the whole system
gets "jerky". The mouse doesn't react in X for a few seconds.. releases..
locks.. releases... It's just like as if there were major memory leaks.
After waiting a while, and not using the system, the load slowly and gradually
goes back to normal. Using the command "top" shows that no swap is used at all
during the process.
I have also seen the problem when burning with the CD-RW drive. The computer was
unusable during the burn process. I have tried with 400 MB swap and 1.2 GB swap.
My RAM is 512 MB. Other hardware info can be found here;

Notable is the fact that when I try the Knoppix distribution (live file system
on a cd that runs in RAM, these problems with USB and IDE does not occur at all.
Everything is very fast.)
