Yes, I have three NFS drives in the Places section. These drives are not mounted by default, but get auto-mounted when I select them. This happens through the autofs service. At the moment I cannot reach those NFS drives, since I am in a different LAN. So apparently the lag I experience depends on KDialog looking for those NFS locations, and not being able to connect. I didn't thought it would have been a problem. In Dolphin I don't have any issue, although I have the same drives shown in Places. I have a lag only if I select any of those drives, otherwise everything works fine. In any case, now I have simply hidden (not deleted, just hidden) those NFS folders from Dophin's Places, and now KDialog opens immediately again. > If you run one of those applications from a terminal, do you see any special message when you open the dialog No, no message is displayed. Thanks again, Davide
