Alvils Berzins, perhaps try setting the swappiness parameter to vm.swappiness=100 on machines with low ram. I find this makes things much smoother.
To do so: 1. Open this text file as root: /etc/sysctl.conf 2. Append this to the end: vm.swappiness=100 3. Reboot. -- gnome-panel will not autostart on lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/542343 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
