I have been using gnome-do for some time now but since recently I started having problems with it. The biggest problem is that it's using a huge amount of memory, 300MB. The others is that the pidgin plugin is no longer working. When I write the name of a contact and want to send a message, I only get "copy to clipboard" as a possible action. Anyone having these problems?

how many plugins do you have enabled for it? thats going to make all the difference in the world. sounds like you've got everything enabled "just in case" or added some 3rd party ones that are leaking like the titanic.

I have the following:

Files and Folders
Firefox
Gnome Dictionary
Gnome Session Management
Google Calculator
Pidgin
Skype
Thunderbird
Virtualbox
xmms2

I know it's not really few but not that many either. I use them all.

well with each one added, the memory usage will obviously go up. Honestly what I would do is disable them one at a time, and see if/when it goes away. this would remove the plugins as a factor.

I probably need to restart gnome-do each time, right?
