Hello Everybody,
I am experiencing a strange problem with X-windows on Redhat Linux
6.1. Previously I had
installed Linux on a 450MB harddisk partition. Although everything was
working fine, I could
not use all the features due to lack of disk space. So, I removed all
my partitions and
reinstalled Linux (using official REDHAT CD) on 1GB partition. The
installation went
smoothly as before. But, my X-windows is giving a lot of problems. It
has become
untolerable slow(Earlier it was quite fast). The command-prompt mode
is working absolutely
fine.
Whenever I start the X-server, it takes a very long time to come up.
I also get a warning
message window with the following message
Panel
No response to the Save Yourself Command. The Program may be slow,
stopped or broken.
You may wait for it to respond or remove it.
Along with the message, I also get two command buttons labelled
REMOVE PROGRAM and CANCEL.
If I choose CANCEL the window appears after some time(the system
operation is still very
slow).
The same window comes again with the heading --- gmp
I have tried re-installing Linux. But the problem continues.
I have Pentium 166MMX system with 16MB RAM (Although it is less, the
system was working just
fine earlier). My Display Card is Cirrus Logic(which is autodetected)
and monitor is LG 20i.
(i have selected the lowest settings 800 * 600).
I feel it may be a bug in Linux. Please help me at the earliest
since the problem is
hampering my development schedule.
Hoping for a positive reply.
