I have 2 monitors and I’m running Xinerama: 1680×1050 and 1280×1024

now, Xorg is using 770 MB of virtual memory. it’s a lot but it’s less than while using kde4.

anyways… I’m not too happy

For me the main problem regarding memory ist the Xorg process, which leaks heavily.

Watch it’s virtual memory size over time and you will see it’s growing steadily when starting or using applications.

If you have a desktop session running over days Xorg will end up taking all your swap space.

Hmm… What about LXDE? I tried it and the memory usage was soo low.. made me smirk the first time i logged into an LXDE session.. it also lets you install most of your favorite software because it has the minimal requirements when installed.. Also heard about an Ubuntu version that comes with LXDE desktop environement by default. It’s called Lubuntu if i’m not mistaken

Keith H, I do not agree on this. This is exactly the type of thinking that created Vista LOL.

Anyway, I’ve just reinstalled Debian and accidentally install KDE3 (in Stable) instead of KDE4 (in Testing) and I remembered why I loved Debian – stable and fast.

Like Keith said, I didn’t even need to run fluxbox to get the performance

Hmm. Interesting. Well 2 years ago or so I was of the same mind, but these days.. I don’t really get it, unless you are trying to run super old hardware. Each release of Ubuntu for example has been faster than the last for 3 releases, and where as I used to want to step it up, now, even on my laptop I consider Gnome to be pretty darn quick..

Forgot Your Windows Password?
A lot of people think that after having lost their Windows admin password, they absolutely have to reinstall their OS. Let me tell you something: They are wrong! Here I’m posting a few methods / utilities which can be used to recover Windows password:

1st Method:

The first thing which you check if you forget login password. When we install Windows, it automatically creates an account “Administrator” and sets its password to blank. So if you have forget your user account password then try this:

Start system and when you see Windows Welcome screen / Login screen, press CTRL+ALT+DEL keys twice and it’ll show Classic Login box. Now type “Administrator” (without quotes) in Username and leave Password field blank. Now press Enter and you should be able to log in Windows.

Now you can reset your account password from “Control Panel -> User Accounts”.

Same thing can be done using Safe Mode. In Safe Mode Windows will show this in-built Administrator account in Login screen.

2th Method:

There are many 3rd party utilities which claim to recover forgotten Windows password:

Windows Password Recovery Tool Service: windowspasswordsrecovery.com

WWindows Password Recovery Tool is a program that works instantly to remove any lost or forgotten password. Simply boot your PC from the supplied Boot CD, and get access to forgotten Windows and administrator passwords in just seconds. Their method is so much faster/easier, and works great!
