I have a 500Mhz laptop with 128mb memory and kedit launches in 1 second, kwrite in 2. I think you have some serious configuration problems, probably to do with your upgrade. To address the actual point of your query, kedit is still present in a default 3.3 menu on my system. I suspect something has gone a little screwy with your system. ___________________________________________________ . Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde.
