what type of system is everyone running redhat x on? I have an amd 500 w/384m ram and 80gig hd. The command line, obviously runs great, however, the gui is quite slow. I am fairly new to linux, about 2 years experience, but I would think an amd 500 with over 256m memory should run a little smoother. any hints, tips, tricks or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have one complaint (today). It seems like Red Hat has changed a lot of "normal" Linux command line terms to their own propriety lingo. Example: yesterday I swapped an English keyboard for a Spanish one. You'd think the command to type at prompt to get Linux to know what keyboard it has hooked up would be kdbconfig. Nope. It's something like red-hat-keyboard, I think. Up pops a nice GUI for Joe Average. But... they really hosed me b/c I was RTFM and it did NOT work. I had to RTFRHM. Just that. I do really like my Red Hat, overall. And, I am Joe Average: 10+ year WinDoze user making the migration. -Greg -- My Penguin wears a Red Hat.
