How much horsepower does your PC have? What is your performance like versus with explorer and running X within that? Do you use Konqueror for web browsing, or are you switching to a Windows application? I really like being able to use Konqueror now that SSL works, but unfortunately it seems to have a fairly sizeable memory leak. That or the X server does and Konqueror just makes it balloon. -- Jonathan Fosburgh AIX/SAN Administrator Communications and Computer Services UT MD Anderson Cancer Center Houston, TX IBM Certified Specialist - AIX v4.3 System Administration _______________________________________________ kde-cygwin mailing list kde-cygwin@mail.kde.org http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-cygwin
