I will do that. Then I like to give the specs for the thinclient.:
We have 2 models heres. 1. Is a Celeron(R) CPU 2.93GHz, with 1GB RAM and a NVIDIA PCI Gefore 6200 (thin clients only have PCI slots) The thinclient runs a stripped down SuSE 9.2, kernel 2.6.13-15-default with rather old nvidia drivers: NVIDIA Kernel Module 1.0-7676 and xorg-x11-6.8.2-0.1 2. Is a AMD cpu family 6 model 8 1GHz (/proc/cpuinf) . According to the datasheet it should be a AMD geode [EMAIL PROTECTED] This machine has 512MB RAM runs eLUX (a thinclient software http://www.myelux.de/). It has linux kernel 2.4.32. with XFree86 version: 4.4.99.903. This machine comes with two configuration: -One is the onboard VGA chip, which is a SIS 741CX/964 (uses Driver "SIS" in XF86Config) -the other is the same machine, but with an additional NVidia PCI 6200 with Nvidia driver 97.46. The second machines are a bit faster in KDE4. (not much, but a bit). I think that its because of the CPU. The Celeron on machine 1 is simply a very bad CPU and I think that the geode is faster. The connection between the thinclients <-> SuSE 11b3 is Gigabit. (The thinclients have gig-E). The machine with the SuSE 11.1b3 is a Core 2 E8400 with 2GB RAM and a NVidia PCi-e FX570. (8800 chipset) > yes, X. the question is why, and i'd like to start with the driver before > exploring further inside of plasma itself. I will now do the Test with the knoppix. (I hope that the thinclients can boot from usb..) regards, Martin _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
