Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu, Xubuntu, and Ubuntu Server all share the base (kernel, low level programme mes). This means you can install any of them on any other. GNOME is the default desktop for Ubuntu. It can also be installed with the ubuntu-desktop package. To learn more about Ubuntu, please see Ubuntu on the desktop. KDE is the default desktop for Kubuntu. It can also be installed with the kubuntu-desktop package. To learn more about Kubuntu, please see Kubuntu.

First of all, upgrade to the latest version. We are constantly updating the program to improve its performance. The latest version should run at least as fast as Apple's Terminal.app. Secondly, there are a couple of things you can tweak. iTerm does the fast drawing by caching the images of glyphs in the memory. Anything that helps to save memory helps the performance. Avoid using a big scrollback buffer. This would use a lot of memory especially if you have lots of tab open.

KDE is easy to work with and has many useful features and well-integrated components such as the PIM package (Personal Information Manager). Additionally, KDE is probably easier for people that used Windows before, but this is rather a nice side-effect than a main reason for this choice.

Initially, Freespire will be built around the KDE environment, but again, being a community project, it's certainly conceivable that GNOME variations will emerge over time. However, it's important to know that Freespire believes in using "best of breed" applications in the default distribution, so you will find both GTK and KDE based programs in Freespire, and you can swap applications in and out using CNR or apt-get.

Start the live system in qemu: qemu -m 256 -cdrom debian-live/binary.iso -boot d -redir tcp:4222:10.0.2.15:22 Change everything you need (e.g. add icons to desktop, change background, set preferences). Compress and copy the /home/user from the live system to your host (using tools like scp). Then include that directory under config/chroot_local-includes. In that directory you must have a "./home/casper" directory structure. After that, it is necessary to make the correct owner start KDE.

By default, the chat data (messages and nicknames) are stored into ?phpfreechat/data/private/chat/? but this path is customizable. On linux it exists an interesting feature which will improve drastically the filesystem performances, this is tmpfs. In fact, it is a memory based filesystem, the read/write access will be very fast but your data will be lost on the next reboot. On my Linux box (debian, kernel-2.6.

This is a reference implementation. As such, the emphasis is on clarity not performance. In its current state, the RI performs reasonably well and is suited for client applications. You may need to do some work by way of performance tuning to get it to work well in a high performance server setting. In particular, you may wish to fine tune object allocation, transaction location (searching for a transaction that corresponds to an incoming message) and other such details. This one's easy. NO.

The Gnome and KDE desktop environments can get into such a state that they either won't start or start more-or-less uselessly. Or you may just have configured a miserable combination of fonts, colours and desktop images and want to start afresh. In either case, it's simply a matter of logging out, renaming the configuration folder(s) and starting the desktop again. Note that when you reset your configuration, you will lose all customizations made under those environments.

Evolution is a Gnome application and should normally work perfectly under KDE if you have the required Gnome libraries installed. If you start Evolution under KDE from shell/console/terminal prompt/commandline and get errors about QPixmap and QPainter, it is very likely a theme problem. Try to not use gtk-qt, try a different theme under KDE.

This will convert all those gnome help xml files to html, so yelp doesn't have to do it every time you access help. Keep in mind, if you uninstall the package, those html files are still in /usr/share/gnome/help/PACKAGENAME/LOCALE and will have to be removed by hand. Also, you will want to rerun the command with new versions of the package. Debian does not use yelp-pregenerate for you during install and remove scripts, so you have to yourself. It is worth it though, the speedup is huge!

We'd sure love to! The problem is, we don't have a clue how to do it =). If anyone else is capable of programming the KDE/GNOME side of this extension, we would welcome the help. For now, a good tool for tray minimizing on Linux is KDocker. It works for all NET WM compliant window managers, including KDE, GNOME, Xfce and many more.

openSUSE supports a number of popular desktop environments, including GNOME and KDE. During installation, the user is asked to choose between GNOME and KDE but no default is given. Both desktop environments are mature and feature-rich, which one a user chooses is a question of personal taste. The content on this and other wiki pages is posted by community members who are not acting for or on behalf of Novell, Inc., whether or not they otherwise have affiliation with Novell.

Yes it is. But we do not recommend this option unless your hardware is powerful enough. Meaning you probably could install any current Linux distribution.

Many people have requested a Linux and a Mac version of WorldFlash. Thanks for the response, however at this time we're only supporting Win95/98/NT/2k/ME/XP. When there is more to report on the progress of the ported programs, it'll be announced at this web site. to top

No. Conglomerate will run perfectly well under KDE, provided you have installed all Gnome 2 shared libraries neccessary for Conglomerate to run.

Ubuntu defaults to GNOME, but also supports KDE. (Kubuntu is a KDE-based version of Ubuntu.) Linspire still prefers, and will continue defaulting to, the KDE desktop environment for target users of the Linspire and Freespire operating systems. Linspire will also continue making the numerous enhancements it does to KDE that make it more ideal for their target users.

We heal your viruses. (Actually, we kill them.) Then we remove unwanted software and unused files. You'll probably notice a big difference in your computer's speed.

The performance of XINS self is typically very good, especially since XINS 1.3.0. If you have a performance problem, then use the NetBeans profiler with the profile target. You will find it in the demo/nbbuild.xml file. You can also change the logging level of Log4j to WARN. If you really believe XINS is a bottleneck in your situation, please send an e-mail to the xins-users mailing list with some details and, if possible, a reproducible testcase.
