Re: Slow Ximian Gnome 1.4



i think one of the main reasons is that nautilus draws the desktop...open
nautilus and in the preferrences make sure that nautilus does *not* draw
the desktop (let sawfish or whatever do that instead)...now check
again...hope this improves speed!

but then, if you want a fast desktop there's always blackbox =)

best,

vester
