AFAIK this isn't true, but when Debian updated my GNOME 2 to GNOME 3 a long time ago, GNOME 3 and GNOME 3 in "fake GNOME 2" mode did need much more CPU resources, than GNOME 2 did need. Xfce4 and LXDE anyway do provide the common workflow, that is used by studios. I guess most engineers are accustomed to a workflow similar to KDE3, GNOME2, Win 98 se, Win XP etc.. IMO both, Xfce and LXDE are very good to use and I don't miss that much of what I was accustomed to, when I used GNOME 2. I recommend not to use GNOME 3. 0.02€, Ralf _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
