    No way, just no way FF would be faster than midori with heavy pages. Try loading itT. it's slow as hell

    Well I didn't use midori for long maybe I didn't load any heavy pages on it. I always use itT with my Minimalist theme so it loads fast on both.

    There is a program called maximus, available in repos, that will maximize all programs by default on startup. I find that very useful in lxde (using mer) as a defalut behavior .

    To install
    sudo apt-get install maximus

    This way all ur programs will start maximized and then you can restore them to default size if u choose.

    Hope this helps some1

    With version 0.8 of Mer, you must comment out the Mer repo due to a dependency problem with libvte9 if you want to install synaptic.

    added line sudo apt-get install libvte9=1:0.19.4-0ubuntu3 to force install of the right version of libvte9 for lxde.

    Create

    Code:
    [Desktop Entry]
    Encoding=UTF-8
    Name=Network Manager
    Comment=NetworkManager control applet
    Exec=nm-applet
    Type=PanelApp
    Icon=none
    Categories=Panel;Utility;
    in ~/.config/autostart/nm-applet.desktop. Or I think the OP has an nm-applet file to put into /etc/xdg/autostart that might work as well.

    its in first post when you move nm-applet.desktop to autostart folder it will auto start next time. I'm working on a package to do all the steps just havn't done it yet.
