FireFox is slow
Hii, my firefox is very slow under linux
with large web pages. the rendering is very slow and I can't roll the page when it is still loading it beacuase it is slow. Can some one help me with this? |
only if you provide your distor, window manager and hardware specs and a timeline of the problem (i.e has it always been there, or did it come after an upgrade etc).
i'm not sure anyone can answer this without you helping to narrow things down a lot.... maybe you dont have enough ram, maybe an update broke it...:scratch: |
Also, which version of FF are you using? Have you installed th "FasterFox" extension?
|
and maybe it's a network issue rather than a rendering one...
|
I am using Pclinux 0.92
kernel 2.6.14 firefox 1.5.1 KDE 3.5.1 and a 686 cpu with 1 giga ram and ADSL yes I use fastfox in windows Firefox really goes fat with out a problem. |
Have you tried downloading anything? Does that work fast?
Print your /etc/resolv.conf file. |
My download works fine, near the 300K for second some times and a good ping.
What is /etc/resolv.conf ? |
/etc/resolv.conf is the file that sets up the system's config for dns servers - ie. the name space and name of dns servers.
however, you don't need to touch this if you are using a dhcp client. try using "dig" to look up some addresseso the internet. |
Ok, the problem is much deeper then this.
I am behind a router and it can provie me DHCP and server name and DNS, but it can't give me IPV6 to work good, so I am using this resolv.conf and implicity write there my server dns and secondery dns, so can it be the problem?:scratch: and if so, I don't think it will be easy solving it because I had many problems in the first way to set it up so my Internet will work, but I will be more then happy to hear some help:D |
why are you using ipv6? not sure there is much point until/if it becomes more widespread.... after all the internet is ipv4. what's the point?
you could try putting the actual ip address is the browser rather than the www name.... see if that makes it faster and if it is then maybe you have a dns issue.. |
ipv6 is disabled by default in PCLOS.
Look in /etc/modprobe.conf If you want to enable it(not a good idea with Firefox) comment out alias net-pf-10 off |

Slow browsing
I don't think you have the slow browser problem. However
you need to provide us with more information. Try the other web browsers such as Konqueror. Do they have the same problem? Post the make and model number of your router. Is it a wireless router? |
no it isn't wireless router, and in Conquer browser everything work good
