Comment 10 for bug 574822

It is already an known fact that Lucid and netbooks are not playing well together.

I have already dumped openoffice in favour of abiwords and gnumerics, firefox in favour of chromium, but still, as soon as I have three to four windows open it becomes *unusable*. And when I open a terminal (even this becomes hard sometimes) and run "top" I see the netbook-launcher crazily taking all the processor.

I will purge compiz, clean .gconf-and-alike folders, reboot, and then run "apport-collect 574822" to attach my card infos etc.

But indeed the problem may be elsewhere, because the standard ubuntu install gave as bad performance.
