Hello everyone. I have experienced the following problem in my machine and I
wonder if anybody else has.
When I have xloadimage running a pic on the background and I have 2-3
other things going such as two editing sessions and (I think it was) a
telnet session, my 486/33 w 8megs RAM just froze...........
Am I pushing too hard here? I mean, for my configuration... Only 8 megs swap.
Has anyone else experienced the same problem?
Should I add more swap, more memory or should I run fewer things?
I am going home now and I am going to let X run all night with a telnet
session open, just to see if that is what does it.
BTW, I am not gloating or anything, but I need to know in case someone wants
to use the machine at the same time. If 3-4 users run 2-3 things and it
crashes.........Well! 'm 'r hogs!
Adios. -JEM-
