Funny you should say that, since this system was a fresh install. The only thing that had changed was the installation of the manufacturer's nVidia drivers. On all new installs, I bust out gdm, install the graphic drivers (I only use nVidia graphics cards in my systems, whether integrated into the motherboard or not), and then launch synaptic to install other packages. Synaptic was running slowly too, but it didn't occur to me that it had anything to do with the gnome configuration till I launched firefox and it took 1-2 seconds for drop-down menus to pop up.
The only thing that the nVidia drivers change are the X11 config, they normally don't make a habit of muking up GNOME configs. I have another system that I'll be turning into a honeypot which also has an nVidia graphics card. My plan was to put BlueWhite on it, but I'll see if I can duplicate this for ubuntu. -- Gnome slow as Windows Vista on Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252173 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
