that is the last 5 lines in terminal, and it doesnt change percent at all, its been an hour so far and done nothing, is it really that slow? my comp is a p4 1.6, 512mb ram.
 
the old p4 ones are really slow. those socket423 ones are almost worse than p3 in performance. dont worry about it. I have a similar p4 1.4 and it used to take a long time between frames as well.

also run 'top' in the command line and see if the core is running at 99% capacity.
 
woot, after another hour im at 2%, i guess it works, the cpu is at 100%, about 97% of that is F@H
