Hi, I'm using scribus to lay out our school magazine. I've noticed (now, and 2 years ago) that running scribus on WinXP is quite slow. I mean that when I have about 3 or 4 pages with text and images is usable, and then, when i load text in all the 16 pages scrolling, moving boxes, editing text, etc become very slow.
I'm using an Athlon64 (3500+) with 2GB DDR and a ATi x800gto. I had the same problems 2 years ago with a Pentium4 1.8 (the eldest generation), and i gave the blame to the old CPU. Actually, if I use ArchLinux 64bit with KDE3.5 (or 4.1) it will improve scribus performance? I would try it, but I have not enough time to repair my archlinux, so i'm forced to winsows... :(, If you think that using linux will be more comfortable, i'll spend some time on it I'm sorry for the mistakes in english!! :) But after 5hours of school and 6 hours of work on a slow scribus i'm quite tired!! Goodnight! (here in italy is almost midnight ...) Simone -------------- parte successiva -------------- Un allegato HTML ? stato rimosso...
