My PC is old a P3 866, but Hardy make it more like a 386 especially when running Openoffice, this version is the slowest I ever used

Re: Sluggish

Any advance DT system will make a system like that slow. I have a very similar old machine and use Xubuntu on it. Runs very nicely. The only drawback I have is that it is a Laptop that is limited to only 800x600 resolution. Other than that Xubuntu runs smoothly.

Re: Sluggish

I've been using Kubuntu on the same machine since version 6, this version is unacceptably slow I would say less than 30% of normal speed, there must be something wrong.

Re: Sluggish

Do you have desktop effects on? That could cause so slow down.

Re: Sluggish

I turn off most of the effects but the stupid bouncing cursor still no way to stop it, please see my other post, but after I disable cupsys and hotkey-setup the system returns to normal speed, the utilization dropped to almost nothing !! but I don't think this is normal, as I've them on with previous versions.

Re: Sluggish

Hmmmm. Have you tried reinstalling those two components? Maybe something didn't get configured correctly. That would be my only guess. I did see your post about the Cursor. Same here, but I don't know exactly why? Is this HH KDE3.5.9 or KDE4?

Re: Sluggish

Both component has no use to me, I don't have a printer or a notebook, I am now downloading update, may be some problem will be fixed then.
