I reported this several time before - on my notebook there is a serious delay after a new install mounting filesystems. And KDE acts real slow because it's constantly trying to access the ls-120/CD combo drive,
The solution is to "supermount -i disable" and reboot - all is then OK but of course, manual mounting is required from that point on!
