Hi, This is a copy of a message I sent to the X list but got no response to: I'm not sure if this is X related or not, however this seems to affect only
X applications (so nothing on the console is out of the ordinary). I noticed the problems about one week ago after doing a standard upgrad (apt-get dist-upgrade), I unfortunately didn't pay attention to what packages were updated, but X was one of them. Now, all apps take a huge amount of time to load up, and a huge amount of memory. Most apps will take a minimum of 100 megs just to start up. KDE now takes up over 500 megs, and takes five minutes to start up. This is probably a stupid question, but could this be related to the gcc-3.2 transition? If not, what could be causing it? I have since downgraded from Branden's experimental packages that just went up a few days ago, and reinstalled a different version of KDE, but to no avail... My system is a 2.5GHz P4 with the NVidia Drivers (I have tried the X ones as well as the binaries), on the 2.5.59 kernel (I have tried on the standard Debian one (2.4.18 or 19), as well as 2.5.54), Memory is 512 ram and about 700 swap... I think this about covers it... I also tried using a minimum number of modules in my X config file, disabling Framebuffer use, and commented out the DRI lines... If any more info is needed from me just let me know, and thanks in advance for any help offered.
