Thanks for the suggestion.  I will see if I can find a place to clear
the cache.  Ironically, the slower machine has more RAM than the fast
one.

I didn't know what generic-pae meant until I just googled it.  I guess
it is a way to allow 32-bit machines to have more than 3 GB of RAM.
The laptop has 4 GB.  Does the fact that the kernel is using a generic
processor cause problems?

Thanks,

Ryan
