In the day or so I have had problems with the Netbook remix being slow
to respond and not redrawing the desktop when closing or minimising
applications.

I experiencing several system pauses, where the applications are
becoming unresponsive for 5-10 seconds.  These pauses were after the
netbook remix desktop stopped redrawing itself.  I accessed the gnome
menu using Alt-F1 (to run gedit as I could not get to the desktop) and
the system hung for about 20 seconds.  The panel died and after about 10
seconds reappeared and started to redraw itself.  After a few more
seconds the system was back to normal performance and the netbook remix
desktop draws itself and general performance is back to normal.

I have experienced issues with windows not always opening fully
maximised, but this is a relatively rare occurrence.

I am running Ubuntu remix 9.10 with the latest updates on an Eee PC
1000.  The only 3rd party sources added are for chromium, which was not
running at the time.  I was running Firefox, a java webstart application
called Hudson, a terminal and gedit (eventually).  None of the
applications were affected apart from the slowness of the system.

In the syslog for this morning I found the following related to gnome-
sesson / netbook-launche processes.  My system is called gkar:
