All, I just switched from Fluxbox to Xfce on my Linux laptop (IBM Thinkpad T41, 1.7GHz, 1GB RAM, ATi Radeon Mobility 9000) and its running _really_ slow. Direct Rendering is enabled (found via glxinfo), so that's not the issue. I am using kdm as the login manager right now (legacy from when I was running KDE). I tried turning anti-aliasing and hinting off and it rendered even slower than it does now, so I reenabled them. Is anyone else having this kind of issue? I couldn't find much on Google about this problem, so I wanted to see what PLUG thought about it. Below is some pertinent info about my system. If I missed something pertinent, let me know. P.S. I am running Ubuntu 5.10 "Breezy Badger", up to date on packages, stock kernel and Xfce 4.2.2 with X.org 6.8.2-77.1. <snip> puma:~> uname -a Linux puma 2.6.12-10-386 #1 Fri Apr 28 13:13:44 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux puma:~> cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 9 model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1700MHz stepping : 5 cpu MHz : 598.039 cache size : 1024 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 2 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 tm pbe est tm2 bogomips : 1185.43 puma:~> free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 1011 957 54 0 262 402 -/+ buffers/cache: 293 718 Swap: 0 0 0 puma:~> lspci 0000:00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82855PM Processor to I/O Controller (rev 03) 0000:00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82855PM Processor to AGP Controller (rev 03) 0000:00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 01) 0000:00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 01) 0000:00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 01) 0000:00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-M) USB 2.0 EHCI Controller (rev 01) 0000:00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82801 PCI Bridge (rev 81) 0000:00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corp. 82801DBM LPC Interface Controller (rev 01) 0000:00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82801DBM (ICH4) Ultra ATA Storage Controller (rev 01) 0000:00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) SMBus Controller (rev 01) 0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01) 0000:00:1f.6 Modem: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 01) 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 Lf [Radeon Mobility 9000 M9] (rev 02) 0000:02:00.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI4520 PC card Cardbus Controller (rev 01) 0000:02:00.1 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI4520 PC card Cardbus Controller (rev 01) 0000:02:01.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82540EP Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Mobile) (rev 03) 0000:02:02.0 Network controller: Intel Corp.
