But it never fails to annoy me how a computer that has a gigahertz clock speed can take several seconds to do some tasks. Sure, there are slower parts than the clock, but still... Something like plugging in a USB stick ought to get recognised a lot quicker. And all it takes is for a bad connection, or lead, for something to get disconnected when you don't know about it (such as a cable wobble), and you have a device that's disconnected, reconnected, disconnected, reconnected, in rapid succession. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
