it's slow!!!!!!
 

I installed fedora 8 on my sony vaio vgn Nr-120E. Everything seems to be on order except the fact that it's very slow.

my laptop configuration is :

Core 2 Duo: 1.46 Ghz
1 GB Ram
160 GB hDD

Welcome to LQ!!

You'll need to define which aspect is slow---eg is it the startup, web browser, word processor, etc.?

While (if optimized) Linux can be faster than Windows, there are specific applications that are slower---eg OpenOffice take longer to start up than does MSOffice. (In my world, this is not an issue.)
