Recently I allowed Ubuntu to perform an upgrade from 7.1 to 8.04. Since then my machine has been running slower than molasses in Alaska. Granted it's an older machine with a 400MHZ processor and 256M memory, but it ran great before the upgrade.
After running a memory check (no problems), I booted from a Knoppix 3.3 live CD to see what would happen. Even with the annoying CD read delays it was tons faster than Ubuntu 8.04.
I'm a linux novice and have no idea what to do next. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
