Hello- I installed CentOS 5.5 on a DELL Machine with ATI Firepro 2260 graphics card. I'm using GNOME for the graphical environment but the display is refreshing very slowly, e.g. scrolling a webpage or moving a window around. Any idea how to solve this issue.

Did you install the ATI proprietary driver? If not, it is using software
rendering and not hardware rendering.
