You refer to the thread about /lib/tls. Google for '/lib/tls linux-il'. While I have no experience with Fedora, there isn't anything magical about it. You can always try to debug it yourself, if you really want to. I would start with 'strace -r -f -o /tmp/trace1 SomeApp' and search the trace for large times. Also, is it the same for all apps? Is 'ls' slower than before? Is something slightly bigger (e.g. emacs)? Or only KDE apps with tons of shared libs and such? Did you check the speed of your disk? Maybe it got fragmented? -- Didi ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
