I can't answer your taskbar question, but I think this will tell you why KDE
seems so slow (and it also explains why KDE doesn't work very well on our
system here).

It might sound like Red Hat bashing, but the article he provides a link to
makes for some VERY interesting reading. (I wondered why I liked
Mandrake...)

Subject: Taskbar question


I've gone back to gnome from KDE because it 'seems' faster to me.

My Kazaa Lite icon travelled with the desktop (pretty cool that). However,
there's one thing I don't get. In KDE when minimizing Kazaa to the tray,
faithfully, in KDE - you can see the icon in the tray on the panel.

In Gnome, when minimizing, you can sort of see the window shrink into the
bottom right corner, but that's it. No icon. ps still shows it running.
Occasionally pressing Alt-Tab will show a kazaa lite option and when
selecting it , I get a teeny square windows at the bottom left, which
dissappears as soon as I get near it. Fast little bugger too.

Is this a limitation of Gnome or is the system tray (sorry I know that's
windows terminology) hidden somewhere for me to find?

Regards,
