Ok, I've done some tests yesterday night on my home system : Patch fixes the right click menu popup delay (it is almost instantaneous now) but as expected, background redraws is still slow, which is causing some performance problem when moving a window quickly over background, creating or destroying window, but there is nothing we can do for that at our level. -- Frederic Crozat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mandriva -- nautilus-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/nautilus-list
