Unforch with a quad core phenom and 4GB of memory, plus mplayer-3.55, it plays 
at about 2% of normal speed, with no discernable cpu or drive activity even 
after giving it time to all be received over my adsl circuit.  .mov's 
generally play well here.

Video card is a Diamond HD2400-Pro, rv610 chipset, currently booted to the 
last fedora 8 kernel & using some sort of a fedora neutered fglxr driver.

But, in trying to do something with the radeonhd driver, I broke x and had to 
upgrade to Fedora 10 to recover.  So x is no longer broken but is so slow I 
need to call a surveyor to measure progress in moving a window etc.  Inches 
per fortnight I believe is the correct measurement scale.  Sheesh.  Wish I 
could watch it though.
