Are you sure? Here Xfree86 has only 26Megs and I have already 32 on the graphics board. > KDE still is a memory hog though... What are you all doing? kdeinit has 58Megs here, running. And I don't think that gmemusage is a good presentation tool, it shows me that: xmms(178XXXK) + galeon-bin(218232K) + python2.1(144408K) = 540 Megs. Which is what I got totally (250 Megs RAM, 290 Megs Swap)! But thats probably because it doesn't respect that different processes use the same memory area!
