I have an old Pentium 75 with 1gig HD and 24M RAM running RedHat 5.2. I used to run fvwm95 as my windows manager but I wanted to try the KDE development tools so I loaded KDE instead.

Could be your video card - what are you using BTW? How much memory does it have and what screen resolution are you running at?
