I have a gnome desktop by default and I wanted to try KDE4, so I installed kubuntu-desktop.
Kde4 was unusable, it tooks more than 4 minutes before seeing the desktop and it was lagging a lot. I was no able to launch any program. To understand what was happening, I first logged into tty1 and ran "top", then logged trough GDM on KDE4. What I saw was surprising: There were about 10 processes called scim-panel-gtk consuming lot of memory and CPU. I decided to uninstall scim. Now KDE4 is usable. scim-bridge-client scim-bridge-qt scim-bridge-qt4 scim-bridge-gtk are still present. -- Scim Starts Automatically Under KDE4 (Using English Only Language) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204478 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
