Also, as a minor point and I know this is really subjective and can be changed, but 11.04 had a better color for its default theme, blue top with white letters. It was really classy. Boot is a problem for all Ubuntu releases, and work will be done in 12.04 to improve the situation. For the lag, are you using xcompmgr for your tests ? Do you test without it ? Maybe it's a driver regression using xcompmgr (and so compositing).

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu 11.10 Experience
Well, here's my apreciation: the performance has taken a significant hit. My old laptop (PIII with 256MB Ram) was suffering with the ram consumtion in 11.04 (starting the system hits the 120MB of Ram). So, i've installed 11.10 and oh surprise! with pidgin and xpad running the consumption is less than 80MB of Ram!! (74 to be exact). Opening Chromium and the Ram is in 115 - less than 11.04 running alone. IMO, 11.10 boots slower Can't agree, since the boot for me is incredibly fast (less than 30 seconds). But i've read that 11.10 in general boots slower than previous releases, so it's not a lubuntu-only problem. seems to lag on any screen click Maybe you should try to change the theme :) I'm very sorry to tell, but there's something with the theme in this release too, that makes the flying over menus a little hard. I've switch to clearlooks and gained a little of speed. The perfect example is to use mtpaint with the default theme... it's quite a pain. Takes longer to launch applications Can't see any real difference there. I must agree with Rob that the whole system seems to be slow (i'm comparing it to 10.04 that on my old laptop was fast as the lightning) , even if the Ram consumption has became less than ever. But i'm testing it on a more than 10 years old piece of hardware! But hey Rob, just try the other flavors of ubuntu... Ubuntu barelly runs on my other machines (lots newer than my old laptop). So I'm guessing that Lubuntu gets his job done: it's the fastest *buntu in the market :) -- jpxsat ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
