You are not alone if having "issues" with this kernel. When I tried to |
23 |
run it recently, I noticed a serious slow down in KDE, especially when |
24 |
logging into KDE. My usual login time is about 7 to 8 seconds but with |
25 |
this kernel, try about 30 seconds. My mouse was "jerky" and even |
26 |
Seamonkey was very slow to switch tabs. Nothing changed but the |
27 |
kernel. I didn't test to long because it was so annoying. |

I used make oldconfig and my old kernel config as a starting point. Did |
30 |
you happen to do the same? Maybe it should be done from scratch? Some |
31 |
conflict or something? |

Thoughts? |
