kubuntu slow

I have ram 256MB system. XP was installed on my master hard. I added a
hard as slave and installed kubuntu 6.06.1 desktop. Two hards are
connected with a ide cable.

New kubuntu system is way tooooo slow, (XP isn't that slow). Funny
thing is that the kubuntu on hard is slower than when I boot with live
cd.

After login, a dialog box named examing file progress is shown.
Especially, the window on alt-f2, the edit area isn't active. It takes
minutes for the edit area to become active.

I set the locale in Korean when installing. I tried kdepersonalizer to
kill all the special kde effects. It still is slow. I've also tried
with another hard disk, same result.

What can be the problem?

Thanks in advance.
