X problem(may be)

[Tapas Ranjan]

Hi :
   I installed FC3 on a desktop, which has a bit old
CPU confugurations and when I open a terminal, 
it acts so slow that only you can see the border of the terminal and the 
username, but can't see any cursor. I can't see what I type, just the 
wallpaper. It's very very very slow, I can't move anything and many times
it just freezes and can't even logout. If I switch to single user mode
without "X" then everything works fine and fast enough.
	First I thought it might be a memory problem, since I 
had 128 MB RAM, then I added another 512 MB, but no change. Second
I thought it might be a disk problem, since I had only 4GB for the
linux partition, where as another 30GB for windows (which works fine),
and then I added complete new hard-disk of 80GB and installed 
the linux again, but still no change. Now I am clueless, what should
I do ? Since I spent quite a few on this, I want help of you guys
to guide if I can solve this problem.

Here is the output of "/proc/cpuinfo" and "/proc/meminfo"

`cat /proc/cpuinfo`
