KDE4 observations



Hi,

having installed KDE4 from experimental this weekend I noticed two major 
problems:
- some components cause insane amounts of wakeups (about 100++/s) which 
result in a power consumtion about  1.5 time the consumption if the latest 
kde3 packages from unstable.
- regardless of eye candy options, maximizing windows takes about 3-5s, 
during which th system is completely unresponsive.

(needlessly to say that I switched back to kde3 within an hour or so ;-)

The machine is a Lenovo Z61m with an ATI Radeon Mobility X1400. I use the 
lastest fglrx driver.

regards,
	Dietz
