    slow startup times

    I installed knoppix recently and I have a problem which I can't identify.
    Some of the programs I open takes about 3 minutes to open and some
    open right away. For example, konqueror opens in a heartbeat while
    kwrite or kview takes forever (3 minutes). Also, opening superkaramba
    takes a second, but when trying to open the file dialog to select a theme
    you wait a long time. Sometimes even the "Start" menu makes you
    wait several minutes.

    When starting these programs through konsole showed no errors.


    Someone has an idea about this issue?
    thank you./

    Well KDE's just that slow. Ok ok maybe not THAT slow..... Run top or TKPS and find out perhaps something is eating system resources.
