moving partititions

[Drewcore]

it seems to me like this probably won't help, though i'll test it on one app...

no, this doesn't fix my problem... its only some of my apps that load
slowly, mostly the ones that are packaged with gnome (totem,
users-admin, network-admin, etc). i'm using xfce now because the gnome
apps load so slowly (including panel).

i don' t know what the deal is.
