[Solved] Proteus v09 very slow?
Posted: 07 Mar 2011, 22:04
Hi,
I have been an intermittent user of Slax-Remix v8 when working on the road. Because of a few issues with it I thought I'd try Proteus v09 as I know some things were fixed when Remix went to v9.
I renamed the boot and slax folders on my USB stick then copied over the boot and porteus folders folders from the iso. The PC (Dell E6400 laptop) boots up but is deathly slow. With KDE, from beginning to initialise the desktop to the desktop completing loading is about 2 minutes. It is less than 5 seconds with Remix v8. Opening a folder, like double-clicking on home, takes minutes. Click Logout -> long wait -> shutdown -> PC off takes minutes.
Do you know if there is anything I can do to make it usable?
FWIW LXDE boots much faster but has the same problems opening folders and with other general operations like application launching.
