Why are my Win XP so much quicker then my 12.1.
The CPU goes to 100% when I starts some thing.
I have the same problem with KDE and Icewm.
In Win XP,there are no delay, I start a program and it start. In
Opensuse, it take nearly 1 min. with no response, everything seems to
have died. Any clues?? Gunnar

I have no idea as to the cause/fix, but I have the same experience. My
home computer, which ran 11.0 very well, has become a pig with 12. 1 &
KDE 4. I have to reboot every week or so to restore performance, but
even then, it's nowhere near what I had with 11.0. This is on a 64 bit
AMD Athlon 64 4000+ & 3 GB of memory. I don't have Windows on this
computer, so I can't compare with it.

My sytem are: AMD Athlon 64 4000+ 2.4 GHZ and 1 gb ram.I have installed
the 32 bits system, from Linux Format DVD. :-) My Opensuse are to slow
to used it. I have tried with all the "small" window system, but the are
all slow. So now I am on my old Win XP. :-((

I had this experience a couple of weeks ago on my laptop and it turned out to be the version of the Nvidia driver installed. Once I rolled back to an earlier version all was back to normal.

Please include which graphics card and driver you are using.
