This morning with a 450MHz processor and 384Mb of memory it took over a minute to open Mozilla. Open office takes somewhat longer. Nor even in a 2 Ghz 500Mb ram does Open office open as fast as the office applications on on my wifes 2.2 Ghz 256 Mb Ram machine, I would love to know what is the difference. Have you installed all of shrike or just a subset, since that makes a big difference? -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University 715 Stadium Dr. San Antonio, TX 78212-7200 telephone: (210)-999-7484 email:akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxx -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
