I noticed that SuSE's interface seemed sluggish compared to RH. Then I realized that it wasn't using the proper 2D video card driver. Also, since you have very little swap, that may be the culprit. I wonder how much/how well the GUI's cache visual components? -Chris -----Original Message----- From: Tobias DiPasquale To: plug@lists.phillylinux.org Sent: 11/21/01 7:06 PM Subject: Re: [PLUG] two questions... Well I would like to repartition my hard drive, but I am running ext3 now. Anybody know of anything, or do I have to just make a swapfile? Thanks in advance! P.S. In response to Mr. Shank's question, it is most decidedly the user interfaces for KDE and GNOME that are *much* slower. Disk access, IPC times, etc, haven't slowed down one bit. It just SEEMS slower, I think. Arthur S. Alexion wrote: > The current Partition magic supports the resizing of ext2 & swap > partitions.
