Don't know if it's "just me" but...I installed the the Club 3.1.3 rpms on my desktop, and the texstar rpms on my laptop. The texstar KDE 3.1.3 system is gawd-awful slow on my laptop, much slower than the original KDE that came with 9.1, at least with regards to initial startup. Takes a LOOOONG time for my desktop to finally come up (Thinkpad 1412, Celeron 366, 128MB RAM).
My desktop is lightening fast (Athlon XP2700+, 256MB RAM, NVIDIA Ti4200) and of course KDE starts quickly, at least as fast as the previous KDE version. I HAVE run into an intermittent problem, however, and I assume it is a memory leak in the OpenGL screensavers. I would set one of the nifty new OpenGL screensavers to work and it would be fine for a while (a day, a couple days) but then I would find the system locked up hard. No keyboard inputs possible and the system would not accept a network connection so I could try to kill X remotely. I have had to hard reboot. I have since switched to just "blank screen" and have thus far not had any problems...of course, I could go home today and find my system locked up again but in any case, none of this occurred until after I updated my KDE. praedor --- Brant Fitzsimmons <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Alex Fisher wrote: > > >Greg Meyer wrote: > > > > > > > >>On Saturday 06 September 2003 06:47 am, Stefano > Pogliani wrote: > >> > >> > >>>Would it be ok now to migrate to KDE 3.1.3 for > MDK 9.1 or is it still > >>>"unstable" ? > >>>In case of "yes", which is the most stable source > : TexStar or the Mdk > >>>Club ? > >>> > >>> > >>> > >>I am using Texstar's packages and they work great. > Unfortunately, I think > >>the qa on them is better than those packages > available from Club. > >> > >> > > > >And where do I get these packages? > > > > Go here http://www.zarb.org/~nanardon/ and set up > your urpmi sources. > Make sure you get the Texstar resource. > > -- > Brant Fitzsimmons > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ___________________________________________________________________ > > Linux user #322847 | Linux machine #207465 | > http://counter.li.org/ > AMD Duron 1.3GHz | Mandrake 9.1 | Kernel > 2.4.21-0.16mm-mdk > KDE 3.1.3 | Mozilla 1.4 Mail Client > Uptime: > 12:10:00 up 4 days, 23:26, 1 user, load average: > 0.42, 0.39, 0.27 > ___________________________________________________________________ > > "All truth passes through three stages.
