This has probably nothing to do with GNOME (though I am not a GNOME user and can't tell for sure). First of all, NFS is slow if you aren't on a Gb network. Secondly, speed depends on the number of objects in you home directory. I mean toplevel object, files and first subdirectories in there. I have got over 2000 in mine (before you ask: I am lazy and haven't sorted those files into appropriate subdirs) and my (KDE) open dialog always takes a while although my home dir isn't mounted via NFS. So, how many objects are in your home dir? Try: ls -1 | wc That "-1" is the digit one. The first number in its output will tell you. > The real annoying problem is when I try to enter my 'mp3' directory by > typing it.

Can't say anything about this.
