KDE is slow
DukePuke:
i dont know. i just fear. I will mess everything up and stick with gnome of other graphical enivronment (checked some alternatives and they all so sucked, lol). No no maybe in weekend,my ISP dont count data transfer during this.
Btw vi is stupid, file editing is total mess, you press insert, ok, but you go one line above and all edited stuff dissapears, lol. Finaly i got bored of this shit, end hit Esc, and I typed :q
Vi shitprompted me that file modified, not saved, and do it every time i wanted to quit.
":q" means quit right?
Refalm:

Vi and Emacs are the only good editors.
People who don't know this simply can't use them.
Their's no sain reason for calling Vi bad.
On your system KDE shoudn't be slow.
Don't use an other kernel(2.6) yet.
First make 2.4 working like it shoud.
Compiling a kernel mostly means disabling stuff you don't need.
If you don't do this your kernel will use alot more mem. than needed.
This is what makes your system run slow, not KDE.

try nano or pico, FAR mor intuitive than vi for doing text editing.
just these people think that poor UI design is a good thing.

They don't.
They only don't care about people who fail to understand that simplicity is much more important.

about editor vi, ppl who uses them and proud of it i can understand. Its psichologicaly explainable
"I can use vi, and you try to learn it and still dont understant, lol, i am above you, you are n00b".
Actualy we need to look at this situation from third person view. What usefull jobs you do with text editor? Actualy dont know, but probably editing some files, some configuration, or even take a look at some scripts, or misc ascii filetypes just to see structure of them. Actualy this is NOT big deal. Editing files with text editor its very small , little-taking work for most users (probably 1-15 minutes in sum per day).So why should i learn vi, read manuals and damage my eyes, then i can use pico, which is very easy to use and almost dont require learning how to use it.
And btw topic related stuff : I thinked about my situation, and i've made decisions, i am not ready to update kde / kernel. lol I am using linux only 1 week allready
thanks
