A 'make -j2 modules' (for example) from the Gnome desktop makes the computer practically useless for anything else, eg multi-second delays in cursor movements on screen. This on an XP1800 with 512MB RAM. Doing the same under KDE is fine, eg the job grinds away and I can still use the computer. Did the Gnomers take a leaf out of the MS programming manual? -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
