Slooooooooow

Those who use DEs like KDE or Gnome and even Enlightenment, will find that days after configuring the computer, it becomes slow. This could be due to lots of reasons. One of them is the "Remember session" option. There could be apps you start or other program start and they will be initiated the next time you log in.

It is very good for you and your computer not to have this option enabled. If you want something to start at login, just add add it up to your xsession file or your .kde/Autostart/ folder (obviously for those with kde 3.x, if you use something else, just go and google it).

Now, if you want to start something from the beginning (no login required), here is how.

Hope that was useful to you all.

Good idea: Recent documents in your Desktop

Well. I have a machine with Ubuntu 8.10 (LTS who knows what it means (wkwim)) with kde 3.5.10.

It seemed very cool to have those recent documents very accessible so I thought to have them in my Desktop. Anyway it was empty then.

So the solution I came up with was:

(logged out using kde)

cd ~
rm -Rf Desktop
ln -s /home/<user>/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments Desktop

And that's all. You will have those things you are working on directly on your Desktop.
I don't really know if you have to write all the absolute path in the ln and I am too lazy to try something else.

Hi everyone, I will write those things I manage to do in my machine or others.

Hope this stuff will be useful to you all.
