Sound on Thinkpad 600E

I fiddled with it a bit and restarted, I think thats fixed it. I really shoulda tryed that before posting here...

Why dont you use kde things?

[TimWhite]

KDE is quite an overhead, admittedly, 3.2 is better than earlier versions, but on a low spec machine, such as the thinkpad, using a lightweight WM makes for a more responsive gui.
Avoiding the kde apps means that the kde libraries do not get loaded, thus giving the box more breathing space before it begins to struggle.

Great fix, thanks for that when I needed it!!
The capitalisation does indicate init of a service, and kde, heavy? sure,
but so is the wife, and she'e great.

there is always the other wmakers if its a 64 meg machine!
