When I tested GNOME3 as at Debian 7 on an Atom D5xx, it took longer than that just to decide whether to enter fallback mode. Removing gnome-shell &c and only leaving the fallback session made it go from xdm to desktop noticably faster. I noticed Windows has a magic "user experience" number, based on how "good" the hardware components are. That lets them say "oh, you're trying to run the fancy minimize animation, but your UX number is only 3.7 -- that's not expected to work". Maybe GNOME should have that. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
