Hi all, |

I recently updated my dell Inspirion 8100's software after I found to |
| 4 |
my suprise I could no longer play video fast enough to watch. I did a |
| 5 |
kernel upgrade from 2.6.24 to 2.6.28, with a number of |
| 6 |
reconfigurations, including moving from madwifi to in-kernel ath5k. |
| 7 |
Also updated nvidia-drivers to go along with the new system. |

Now my system is extremely sluggish. It updates the screen very slowly |
| 10 |
in X and CPU performance is noticably slower without X running too. |
| 11 |
WiFi speed is dismal. |

I tried to remove all cruft and extras from the kernel, but I haven't |
| 14 |
managed to improve matters yet. Since it now takes hours to update the |
| 15 |
system, I was hoping someone might have and idea as to what the cause |
| 16 |
of the slowdown might be. |

Sound Familiar? Any guesses? |
