It seams ram is NOT a problem. looking at the system monitor, i have never seen xubuntu use the swap or go over 70% of the available ram. The problem is the cpu load, wich spikes on maost operations. Is there a way to reduce the cpu load?

[10:41] Colossus, I have no experience with Gphoto but have you checked their FAQ? http://www.gphoto.org/doc/manual/FAQ.html [10:41] nobody has a clue? Why the gphoto2 process assumes the letter D? [10:41] I have to reboot [10:41] Colossus, I have no experience with Gphoto but have you checked their FAQ? http://www.gphoto.org/doc/manual/FAQ.html [10:41] Colossus: or always after the same number of files?

[10:57] Colossus, does it have to be a cmd-line program? [10:58] Allex, yes...it does [10:58] no but GUI uses libgphoto2 that it is used by gphoto2 cmd-line program.. === Colossus tries again to download pictures from the camera [10:58] Allex, you need to install something like pyneighboorhood [10:58] I'm not into this, but I read this blog which had this post: http://grumpymole.blogspot.com/2007/02/easy-samba-browsing-with-xubuntu-feisty.html [10:59] (That's about pyneighbourhood ;-) [10:59] vidd: oki [10:59] vidd: i didnt find anything in synaptic on that name :( [10:59] Allex, http://grumpymole.blogspot.com/2007/02/easy-samba-browsing-with-xubuntu-feisty.html [11:00] Single "o" I guess [11:01] Allex, its in universe.....pyNeighborhood [11:01] "N" is "n" (not capitalized) [11:02] vidd: oki, i just installed it, but when i click on the folder i want to see i get the message "failed to mount" [11:02] *Sigh* See http://grumpymole.blogspot.com/2007/02/easy-samba-browsing-with-xubuntu-feisty.html [11:03] Allex, you need to set the permissions as described in the post I linked to [11:03] Allex, did you read the guide vinze posted?

[11:10] Colossus, I have "Enable Volume Management" ticked under "advanced" tab [11:10] yes [11:10] that's explains why suddenly I dont have icons anymore after playing with thunar-vol.man [11:10] you didn't enable it?
