Hello to the list,

since the last update - look at the protocol at the end of the mail -
Fedora 12 Gnome-Desktop is very slow. Every action takes seconds before
it is executed:
(*) Opening a terminal window: 2 sec
(*) In the terminal: su root and checking the password: three seconds
(*) In the same terminal: ls /sbin: first nothing happens, then it
scrolls the content of the directory line for line
(*) Opening Thunderbird: 5 seconds a clear window, then a part of (*)
(*) Thunderbird after 4 seconds the rest
(*) scrolling in every application very slow
(*) Starting of Compiz failed
(*) Moving a window: the content of the window which is under that is
restored line by line

Are there any problems with Xorg?
Before this update, everything was very fast!

Thanks for your answers

Dumb question: had you reboot your system after update?

Now I have made additional tests:
(*) resume after suspend (suspend-to-RAM): before suspend the speed of
the graphical output is very good, after resume it is low.
(*) reboot: everything is ok
(*) logging off and logging in: the graphical output speed is terrible

Best regards
