This might be a silly question but how do I actually perform this
pre-linking act. I've only just upgraded to MDK 8.0 from 6.5 so I've never
had this problem before, but I have noticed a considerable difference in KDE
startup time since performing the re-install...

The claim is 30 to 50% faster. In my experience with
objprelink'g,
50% is conservative, it's even faster than that. Apps like Kmail and
Konqueror are ready to go in under 1 second. Using Mosfet's Liquid
theme with System++ decorations increases it to just a hair over 1
second. KDE2.2 w/o prelinking, times were about 4 to 5 secs using
the
default themes.
I can't comment on actual loading time for just KDE because I
autostart 2 applications on all desktops. One of which is Gqview to
display random background .jpgs from a dir that has 42,000+ pics in
it.
Still KDE loads in much less than 1 minute, more like under 30
seconds.
IIRC, w/o prelinking it wasn't that much slower. It's never been
minutes.
