upgrade to 10.2 -> system getting slower
I have upgraded to 10.2 yesterday, keeping my old kernel 2.6.11.12. The only major change I've done is using freetype-2.1.10-i486-1arf.tgz from linuxpackages.net, in order to use a byte-code interpreter enabled version of freetype.

can you post the output of ps -aux both immediately after boot in runlevel3 and then after loading KDE?

I don't know how much it'll help, but you might try disabling arts as it's using a considerable chunk. KDE itself uses several 1-2% chunks. I just checked my own and X uses 2.5%. When I opened Firefox, without an internet connection and without loading any pages or files, it uses almost 12%.
