Hi!, I guess you hace that kind of problem because you are not using the
acceleration option in your /etc/X11/XF86Config I used to have that kind
of problem in my Laptop, it is a PII and I was very disspointed with the
performance... but it was my surprise when I discovered that the accel
option in the Section "Device" was turn off, I just wrote in that
section:
Option "accel"
and it changed everything so beautfully that I was happy again :-)
Try doing it and tell me if it worked???
Cheers
