<div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Some sort of control panel for changing passwords and other settings would be nice, especially  for new users. I don't think I saw this in the wiki. This week I started playing with a simple bash script to fill the role. <a href="http://stuporglue.org/downloads/prefs">http://stuporglue.org/downloads/prefs</a> It's mostly just proof of concept at the moment. For a new user even just bringing a network connection back up, or setting the time and date can be pretty complicated.</blockquote><div>  I wrote about config guis on the wiki, we need one of those like gnome-system-settings at least for the network if not for all the other sysadmin things. </div>I'll look into it eventually if noone else takes it. <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I've had it on a 200 MHz AMD, with 64 Mb of RAM. With this system, Xfce performance was still acceptable. Not terrific,but good enough. The real problem was that launching Firefox would take almost a minute, and if I ran more than one program (ie. Firefox and GAIM and Abiword) then it would have to go to swap every time I switched programs. If I just ran one program and kept that one selected, it'd work fine. Even Firefox worked alright as long as I didn't have anything else going. </blockquote></div> thanks Jani
