pandronic:
I have just installed Mandrake 10 and I'm quite impressed, still I'm having lots of trouble.

For example the internet is slow as hell. I have this problem when I'm first accessing a site - let's take Google for example - first page is slow, then 2nd, 3rd and so on are ok. If I don't access Google for a few minutes the first page I access is again slow.

Download is ok.

Any ideas? Thanx.

udaki:
Try other browsers if it still is slow you might be using too much of your bandwith or google server might be crowded that day or it could be your modem is not fully compatible with linux.Did you set up the modem right?

WMD:
What's your connection type?

Post the results of the ifconfig command.

pandronic:
My connection is cable (I should have said that from the start) and Google was just an example - it's the same for all the sites - first page slow, next ones kind of ok.

ifconfig:

[edit]

Yet another problem:

XMMS quits when I try to play a song. Sound works ok and for example in Audacity I can play something with no problems.

Thanks

Sounds like something is bolloxed with your DNS resolution. Can't quite think what.
