I am still geting used to Mandrake 8.0.
My concern is that with a dual boot system Windows seems faster than Linux
in KDE.
Example: Explorer opening a web page 3x faster compared to KDE or netscape
on same system.
Is there some sort of speed tuning I should do?
I am testing Linux primarily with a 133 MHz P1 with 64 mb with 20mb of swap.
Don't tell me to get a faster box - I have one.
WIndows 98 runs OK with this hardware.

I have tried several other distributions with much the same results.
I fear that the claims of Linux speed in relation to Windoze may be just
hype.
