Apps :: Performance Tweaks ?
It Worked
I have a real xserver now. the 800x600 was difficult to use because the bottom of my screen was cut off, so I booted knoppix std and copied the default vesa xconfig file and put it in dsl(the dsl one wouldnt work for some reason), and now I have 1024x768. There is a noticable differance between the speedof the neomagic config and the vesa config, But until i figure out how to manually edit xconfig files it will have to do.
Thanks for your help.

Another thing I want to add:
When using pagedown/pageup in firefox it's much more usable on old computers then when you scroll. Scrolling uses much more cpu then pageup/pagedown. It's not exactly a tweak, but it makes firefox quite "enjoyable" on my p1. Although I use elinks as primary browser.
