https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41514 It should be solved when the akonadi server replaces the internal pop server. I do not know what's the state of kde 4 with respect to this. >> 2) fam/libfam0 have a bug where it takes all of the cpu; if you have >> a multi-core cpu, you may not notice that it's eating up your >> processing time, but when kmail may be very slow in this case (it >> seems to depend heavily on libfam).

And while I was looking for the bug number in famd, I found that it has been solved recently - probably only in unstable for now -, after 5 years. Anyway, I am already using gamin for over a year now (IIRC) and have had no problems with it, so I see no reason to come back to famd. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=252896 Cheers, Tiago. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
