Besides,my video card shares my memory,so the "Mem"is less than 512mb. |
| 89 |
The first several days after i install my gentoo,the speed is fast(at |
| 90 |
least faster than kde which i used before!).Then,now,the speed is slow |
| 91 |
down.Someone says i have installed more software now.But i just don't |
| 92 |
know why? |
