Only if they admit that they're doing it the wrong way. I gave up on Gnome when they made a desktop look like a tablet computer display, and they ploughed on with that stupid design philosophy despite all the complaints. I went over to using the Mate fork, instead, and it's far better (for me). However, the login screen still uses Gnome shell, and that makes the computer grind to a halt, all by itself, particularly when its screensaver kicks in (just a static graphic of a pretty picture). On computers that are left running all the time, I periodically have to cold boot them (or go through a lot more malarkey), to make them stop behaving like a 486 with 2 megs of RAM. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
