I have both the download edition and the powerpack, no difference in speed in either that I can tell, which makes sense since its the same base rpm packages being installed.
I am running 8.1 on many different systems.. one has only 32MB of ram, and the cpu's I have running are: 166mmx, (dns server n stuff) 200mmx (firewall/samba) 233mmx (firewall/samba/postfix) Ppro200 (firewall/samba/postfix/http) Celery450 (testing) Athlon1000 t'bird (firewall/samba/postfix/http) Athlon1800XP (firewall/samba/postfix/http) working great on all of them, my home samba server/firewall/mailserver is only a 233MMX with 160MB ram, and it runs great, GUI and all, (I use icewm mostly, but KDE works ok too.) rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mark D'voo Sent: Tuesday, 8 January 2002 9:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] 8.1 - very unstable i think there was a problem with the download edition, I have downloaded it 3 times for 3 different computers, on each computer is was slooow and very unstable ( i was lucky to have a 1 day uptime ). I think we should take a vote to figure out what is wrong, Tell me if 8.1 is giving you problems or working great and was it the download edition, powerpack, gaming, etc? mark On Wednesday 09 January 2002 07:16 am, you wrote: > We are going nowhere.
