Re: [newbie] Slowness
What kind of computer do you have? My Pentium III 800 with Mandrake 8 don't runs, fly; xterm 1 second, kwrite 1.5 seconds, Konkeror 3 seconds to run. CPU now, with kde, kmail runing, a terminal, kap runing, 5% used Perhaps an old Pentium 166 or a bad installatiob?

[newbie] Slowness
A note for those who, like me, found Mandrake 8.0 and KDE just too slow to be usable. Today I loaded RedHat 7.1 (Seawolf), and things are fast enough. i.e. an xterm comes up in < 2 seconds, kwrite in < 3., and Konqueror in < 7. Compare these to 15 - 45 second times I was experiencing with Mandrake. Also, I notice that I now have about 95% CPU idle, while with Mandrake 8.0, the figure was down around 5%. (With kapm-idled taking up 95%) Using RedHat, kapm-idled is still there, but uses close to 0% all the time. Regards, Irv

This mailing list is REALLY slow to send out messages sent to it, there's a huge lag between my send time and the receive time. Apologies to all for the duplicate answers. It makes me look like I'm not reading the previous replies, but that's cause I haven't gotten em yet... "Without the Law, there is no Liberty. Without Justice, there is no Law."
