The first thing to try was the 7.3 binary rpm, which runs fine on my older
7.3 system...

I just thought I would ask before I do a rebuild with the new kernel, gcc,
etc.

Has anybody tried building DX with the Intel compiler?

Thanks.

Yes,

But I am not running the RPM version, and havn't tried that either.
I'm on a RH-8, AMD 2600+, with Nvidia GForce4 graphics and think
the performance is excellent. So do try a rebuilt version and see
if it improves things.

Did you compile this on the machine that you are running it on?  I have
found that most applications have to be recompiled on RH 8.0 using the
gcc3.0 libraries before they perform well.  Is there a DX 4.2 binary that
was compiled on RH8/gcc3?
