Re: TO ALL: Long application startup time
Hi,
How about not using kde and just using something lite like blackbox or fvwm
and *then* fire up kmail there? I know kmail had/has issues with attachments
etc from any other app then kde, but I'm sure these issues will be addressed
sooner or later.
kde here starts fairly pain free. I kill kdm as soon as it starts (it's
annoying) and log in as normal at my first console, then start another app in
console 5 and log into console 11 (which starts x on 12). Start up is about
10-20 seconds after latest release for potato. I keep it simple, and have a
root part and swap part on hda.
fwiw.
