I'm going to defer these basic, common questions to the rest of the community.

There certainly should be.  I started Rosegarden, went to the Edit menu, found 
Preferences down at the bottom, and the Behavior tab was the first thing up, 
with the Graphics Performance option the very first choice available.

Rosegarden no longer uses KDE, and it looks the same everywhere.  If that 
option really isn't obvious to you, then somebody could have customized your 
particular build of Rosegarden in some weird way.  Distros do that kind of 
thing.  It's annoying.

Anyway, the graphics performance thing is a very minor consideration in the 
scheme of things.

Actually, the hardware has changed very little since those days.  If anything, 
the spectrum of hardware out there in the world is less complicated now, 
because all the really good stuff has been discontinued, and everybody is 
dealing with the worst case scenario now.

Rosegarden, however, has changed considerably since those days.  I never went 
back through that old tutorial to bring everything up to date.  I'm afraid 
there's just nothing in it for me, and it would be an enormous amount of work.
