[ILUG] P2 400MHz too slow for video?

[Gavin McCullagh]

A quick update.  I didn't think the Nvidia kernel and openGL driver worked
with this card.  However, I realised they would and tried them.  The video
is now far better.  I can use the -framedrop switch and it's approaching
watchable but sound gets quite crackley.  I suspect the bus hogging thing
may be correct.  Apparently Xv was not supported by the nv driver.  It
works now (not to mention X is much quicker and I get a nvidia splash
screen starting X).

I think the sound card is probably causing the problem now.  I'm going to
try and get my hands ona  better supported sound acrd at least for a trial.
Will let you know how it goes.

incidentally, the chipset is a Intel 440BX by the looks of it.

$ cat /proc/pci
PCI devices found:
Bus  0, device   0, function  0:
    Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX - 82443BX/ZX Host bridge (rev
2).
      Master Capable.  Latency=64.

Thanks again for all help,
