I presume you mean qt4-x11? That would be the one. I'd be interested in the build time for it as well. If your iceweasel build time is indicative, I'm guessing you might complete qt4-x11 in about 15 hours as a single-process build. In unrelated news, I've been trying to get someone's attention over on linux-kernel to assist with the system freezes when I try to run either KDE4 or Gnome-3 with KMS. The 3.2-rc3 kernel seems a bit better than its predecessors, but I *think* what's happening is simple memory exhaustion. No panic messages, extreme system sluggishness just before it goes completely unresponsive, etc. Of more than a little concern is the number of do_entUnaUser suppressed callbacks showing up in syslog as the desktop session process startup proceeds. --Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
