No, it's really stable. But also kinda bloated. THere are times when it takes
a dialog-box 8 seconds to draw in. During this time my cpy usage hits 100%.
It's the wierdest thing. And this is no slouch of a computer (PIII800, 256
PCI150 Ram, Asus P3V4X Moterboard, G400, UDMA 66 drives and controllers etc) I
have noticed the problem diminish quite a bit with kernel 2.4-test 1 though.
Which also seems to have fixed many of the memory handling issues.
