Why does it take such a long time to launch an application ?
whevever I have no internet connection. Launching OpenOffice for instance, or just an Xterm will take as much as 20 to 30 seconds, while the same calls are almost instant if I have an Internet Connection running. Launching an Xterm does not need Internet though...
I am running Ubuntu 8.04 on a DELL Inspiron 1525
Thanks in advance for hints or advices so as to solve this problem.
