System, Preferences, Apperance, Visual Effects, None fixed it. The screen flashed, keyboard response immediately got much much faster, windows such as Applications, Accessories, Terminal came right up, movable, resizeable, the whole bit.
As installed the Visual Effects did not have any of the None, Normal, Extra choices checked. Just tried "Normal" and that works too. "Extra" also works, however when windows are dragged they smear a bit. On this system the bug is that NONE of the choices were selected as installed by Ubiquity or whoever is supposed to look after such things. Note I've installed Hardy a couple of times and the same "metacity --replace &" was required. Next install I'll check the Visual Effects after install. Thanks for the fix - and it even persists on rebooting. I looked at my 3x faster system. As installed, the "None" box is checked.
