I am not yet impressed with this part of Ximian (the only one I've been
able to download so far - 45 megs for Evolution? Nuh-uh!).
It's pig slow. I'm running Debian (unstable) with pretty recent
everything (only keeping up with development tools from now on, though).
And on a Duron/750, it takes approximately the time of shutting down and
rebooting into X for a Nautilus window to open. It locks up the display
occasionally, and it takes 5 seconds from selecting an icon until it
actually gives me a changed cursor.
Second problem:No HTML. The manual is in HTML, but when I choose help
from the menu, I just get the raw source. I presume the .debs just
aren't up to normal Debian standards :/
So, what am I doing wrong? RTFMing seems to be a slightly annoyance
procedure, as I'd have to dig 'em up with Moz ;)
