Server delay to execute commands

[javito_pir]

Sorry my english, I have debian lenny, when I run an application is slow to load (example: iceweacel open and it takes, I can hold him iceweacel work normally), I tried to change from gnome to another and the same thing, went down some services (samba, squid) and nothing. I open a terminal and it takes, I want to duplicate it and do it fast. From a terminal without X (tty1) with root run mc and moves quickly, also run as root "sudo mc" and takes to boot.
Any action done with sudo it takes to run.

Can not be what it takes to make starting the applications, not the PC because it is new, and from one moment to another I began to pass this

The sudoers file is fine, in the log's nothing unusual, since other PC take long to enter samba.

Thank you from and any solution to my problem.

Hi,
have you run top and free commands to see process that "capture" the system?
have you boot in recovery mode and test speed?
have you add a new user and login. Problem could be caused by user config, i dont know...

What you mean by server. If your kernel is configured for server it may not favor desktop apps. Also, is correct driver loaded for your HD controller interface.
