Hi,
out of experience (from this internet cafe here running with KDE 2.1.1)
the users are *not* capable of understanding that starting applications
may take some time. The result is that they click on the konqueror or
netscape icon 5 or more times which slows down the machines (diskless
clients) even more. So what is needed besides the taskbar start
notification is to also set the cursor to wait cursor. A new hourglass
cursor with a pointer a la windoze would be the best option, this one
can be black and white so this shouldn't be a problem to do actually.
But changing the cursor is *very* crucial.
Ralf
