Good one. I don't share any of the OP's issues either. (Well, I neither use konqueror nor kmail. And I certainly don't to keep half a dozen tabs open while logging off. My single KDE sessions run for ~ a week. and I prefer to start with a fresh clean desktop at KDE log on) But I do share the general feeling of "things should / could have been much better in the KDE land." And I most certainly miss the "crispy, snappy" feeling of KDE 3.5. In good old days, Konqueror used to fire up at the blink of an eye. Now, it takes almost 3-4 secs to display that flashy "blue screen of konqueror introduction." I can see the svg background drawing slowly.. Yeah its easy to blame it on nvidia / amd / intel (for laptops) (so whom are we left with?) ;) As someone mentioned, of late I think, sidux has done a decent job in taming the unruly Sid with KDE. I think it is safe to say that my patience with KDE can be attributed to a large extent to sidux. -- Regards PK -------------------------------------- http://counter.li.org #402424 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
