Weird. You see this on all sorts of hardware including dual core
machines. What kind of hardware are you seeing this on now?
Intel 945PSN motherboard
Intel 805 Pentium D processor
eVGA CO Nvidia 7900GT PCI-E Video card
2 gigs of pc(6200 i think - the stuff capable of 800mhz) ram (i know
it's running at 667mhz)
gateway 2185 21" widescreen lcd @ 1680x1050
Solaris U1 was installed on a 74gb raptor, attached to onboard SATA.
I had to add a line to driver_aliases as the HCL suggests for the on-
board ethernet (http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/data/sol/components/
details/1170.html)
I installed the nvidia driver (the most recent version they released,
since it's the only one that supports the 7900), and then patched the
system completely. I know whenever I saw network activity, the
machine started to sort of stutter (the mouse was stuttering across
the screen, windows didn't move smoothly, etc...) Pretty much
everything goes on/off pause very rapidly in little spurts. I think
it might have occurred on disk access too.
Cheers,
David
PS - If I need to reinstall to diagnose this, it can be done.
