Problems / Solutions
- [2008-11-10] - High CPU load when burning dvds in k3b
- Solution: load apparently due to KDE Baghira style animations → disable all widgets animations (button animations, use Baghira style progress bars...)
- [2008-11-10] - High X load due to KDE Baghira animated widgets
- Solution: disable all widgets animations in Baghira (disable button animations, use Baghira style progress bars...)
- Next problem: disable button animation settings seems not to be kept. Eg.: burn a DVD in K3b, open htop and note X load, open KDE kcontrol, enable and disable back Baghira button animation, open htop again and compare current X load (problem is that the load is now smaller meaning the previou settings was not kept).
To Do
- [2008-08-13] @TODO - Upgrade Launchy.
- [2008-07-28] @TODO - Describe general file system setup (sda5, symlink to /home, symlink to /srv).
- [2008-07-28] @TODO - fix mbstring support (see http://localhost/phpMyAdmin).
- [2008-07-28] @TODO - MediaWiki - change pwd.
