Hi Lou,

Please accept my apologies once again for the queries and comments but would be interested in benchmarking your custom kernel against the distro default ?

Best regards

[OhHeyItsLou]

@shafnet No apology required my friend :) I can do that when I get some time. By the way in response to your other comment regarding PAE I'm on a 64 bit system so PAE is not required to read more than 4gb of Ram. It is required on a 32 bit system and is a simple config setting.

@OhHeyItsLou now you see why I deleted the comment ;) Would be really cool to see some benchmarks along with your choice of schedulers. Thanks again and all the best for the holidays

@shafnet hahaha I will try and put that vid together soon.

I have one question for you Lou. How to change size of font in Gnome 3 in activities screen? Tnx

[OhHeyItsLou]

@ivantomica To tell you the truth I'm not sure I've never really looked into it it may be something you can edit in dconf-editor.

how do I go about removing a kernel?

I need to try this for my laptop,be nice to have a shorter boot time.

@OhHeyItsLou ok cause personally only thing that bothers me in Gnome 3 is that i can's see names of apps in application menu, and i have 30" screen and my sight is nearly perfect...
