I am also having the same problem. As mihai007 on 2007-01-10 here, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog/+bug/78710

This isn't a wishlist, but definitely a bug since it can be a real show stopper with folders containing images in the thousands. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193010 Title: slow Eye of GNOME start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/eog/+bug/193010/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
