I ditched Suse 9.0 because by itself, it is a CPU hog. Xastir puts a 
load on the system when processing radar files and shapefiles. The delay 
was unbearable with both. Ditched Suse and went back to my old standby 
Slackware 10.0 and the system became manageable. Xastir dogs when 
processing the weather radar and the counties but other than that, all 
is fine for a 266 MHz PII.
