Make sure your /etc/hosts file has both the eth0 IP address with real hostname and 127.0.0.1 localhost. Sounds like maybe it can't determine its hostname. GNOME will warn of this condition at login but KDE may not. You'll see all kinds of weirdness if that's the case. Most applications launch on my Athlon 1GHz, A7V133 in well under a second. Evolution, one of the slower apps, takes 2 seconds from the time I click the icon to when its up and fully functional. It only takes 5 seconds to launch on my Pentium 75 MHz. -- David Norris http://www.webaugur.com/dave/ ICQ - 412039
