All,

I guess everyone knows 11.4 is officially out. The repos went gold a
couple days ago and I did a zypper dup on my workstation yesterday.

I must say, the desktop work experience just feels snappier. I have
no idea why, but just bouncing around in firefox, or dolphin, etc.
just feels more instantaneous.

I've been meaning to write something too, but on my sons laptop,
(upgraded from 11.2 to 11.4), the experience is exactly the opposite.
Very slow, long KDE startup times, frequent lengthy hangs in Firefox.
Switching tasks using Alt-Tab can take 2-3 seconds. Not a criticism
as such, just an observation.

Something isn't quite right though - is anyone else seeing loooong hangs
(up to 10minutes) with the mouse being immobile and no other apparent
activity, after which the machine will suddenly wake up again? Seems
to be Firefox (4beta) related.
