Hey,
What are your computer's specs? If your computer is just slow, another
version of 'buntu might help.
I suggest running Xubuntu, or Lubuntu.
In the Terminal, type:
sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
or
sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
for Xubuntu or Lubuntu, respectively. You will have to log out.
When you want to test the Xubuntu (or Lubuntu) you will have to click
the little Ubuntu symbol on your log-in box. Select the desktop you want
to use and log in.
If that doesn't help, try running Ubuntu on a live USB (not CD or DVD),
and see if it's any faster, if it is, then you probably need a new hard
drive. Careful! If your USB speed excels your SATA speed, (eg. a 3.0
verses an old HD) then this test won't mean much.
Hope this helps!
Tony Psmythe
