Strange rolf smiley problem...

[catocom]

Using Konqueror that smiley is all spastic.
But when I pull up the page with all the
smilies on it, they are like in slow motion.

Reckon I need a different video driver?

hmm
well it may be this crappy processor (k6-2 533)
It seems to be fine on a PII400.
Must be something to do with the cache size.

It's because of the massive amount of smilies on the page when it goes slow and the small amount of smilies on the page when it goes fast. I don't think the rofl smilie has a specified speed limit, so to speak, so the browser just animates it as fast as it can.

Well I found out, eventually, after finding a white paper on it,
that no version of mandrake will run right on computers with
a motherboard w/VIA chipsets, and K6-2 processor combinations.
Mostly the chipset. They've never figured out a good workaround
for it.

VIA sux. for linux anyway.
