Eep! Now I can see why it take 3 hours to compile! I compile on a Celeron 1.7GHz box with 3/4Gb memory and RedHat 9 and it takes about 7 minutes here. I also compile it on my 1.3GHz Celeron laptop and it takes about 15 minutes from scratch. > Is > mine enough?

I'd suggest getting hold of a newer machine more than anything - a P233 really is archaic. Scribus will still work, but it will be slow. In part, that is down to the dependancy on Qt (which is slow anyway), but it will really be down to the box you're running it on. Sorry.
