- Weird problem:
-
- we have 3 9k400's - two of them have been upgraded to 68040's along with a
- 98705 graphics 'accelerator' - i think this box is Personal PRX P1 or something
- like that.
-
- the other 400 is just a 68030 with the standard graphics card A1416A (written
- on back)
-
- now the weird bit - i've been starting to use them heavily again (after using
- a 700 for ages) and noticed that the two 'fast' 400's take ages to update the
- screen compared to the 'slow' one.
-
- simple things like 'ls /etc' or 'cat bigtextfile' in say, a hpterm take about
- three times as long on the fast machines !?
-
- any tips ?
