This is not a time out but the fact that tde/kde3 stores the state of the applications you are running when you exit the session. I don't think KDE3 did it differently. The notification window was just not there AFAIR. @home I have /home on nfs - it takes longer compared to when /home is on local drive. If you are the only user of the notebook and you don't have to change profiles (like I do), you could use hibernation. You even do not have to reopen applications or log in. To the original subject I have the impression that kmix takes too long (like few seconds), but I never had time to look into what it does on shutdown. anyway thanks for the screenshot, because there was speculation what you originally mean. regards --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
