[opensuse-factory] speed impression on firefox 2
Hi everybody, I have upgraded to Beta 1 of openSUSE 10.2 last week. Since then, I feel Firefox (which also got upgraded to 2.0 now) much slower than 1.5 was before. For example, when entering an URL then hitting <enter>, for a while nothing happens (not even the status bar changes from stopped or something). In general, I would say the surfing experiance got much worse. I also have FF on my win installation in the office and wouldn't say it degraded somehow. (or not as much experianced). Does anybody else have this experiance with FF2? Dominique
IP6 is enabled by default and most DNS-servers cannot handle it....generating long delays.. Change in yast > network card > advanced >> IP6. I just did that and now it is fast again :D Does that help? Bart Op dinsdag 31 oktober 2006 11:49, schreef Dominique Leuenberger:

Does that help?
Yes. I'm a little tired of IPv6 enabled by default. It is used on some internal enterprise networks and that is mostly all. It seems it will pass some more time before it comes in public use, but is enabled for years as a default, making those articles permanent need: http://en.opensuse.org/Disable_IPv6_for_Firefox http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Mozilla_and_IPv6 http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Konqueror_and_IPv6 http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disabling_IPv6_completely The number of articles tell how many people asked for solution. BTW, Firefox 2 is pleasant surprise for openSUSE wiki editors. Unlike Konqueror it is fast, and now it has spellcheck. -- Regards, Rajko M. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Wait for beta2 and check the network proposa, Andreas

It's time, as it is endless string of similar questions that should not appear at all. The enterprise networks have IT stuff that can reconfigure system for their needs. The problem is for private users that mostly have no clue what to do and what we see is minority that found the way to ask the question. -- Regards, Rajko M. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
