Hello, I installed Kali linux v 1.1.0a /64bit on my PC (HP Pavilion DV 7 with processor i7 2.20GHz with 8 cores, and 8 GO RAM, 6 Mo Cache, 1 Terra HDD Toshiba) in dual boot with Win8, but I find a problem that kali runs very slowly and laggs, for exemple when I execute command it takes secondes to runs in place of runing directly, and it do some lagging, so can you help me please? PS: I did 'top' command to see if there is some running programs that works with a high pourcent, but I find nothing the max usage of programs with CPU do not exceed the 8%.

Thank you in advance. What graphics card is installed the tools in kali are Nvidia CUDA ready so is there a nvidia or AMD card or a hibred intel/nvidia chip seeing as kali is based on Debian the debian documentation is a MUST READ!!!

Fallowed by taking the 'offensive security' CLASSES HOW was kail installed? A custom partition set up? A LVM set up?

Or a FULLY ENCRYPTED!!! ( RECOMMENDED!!!! ) install ( with a very long and complex 'pass phrase' ) what? My card graphic is hibred intel/amd chip (AMD Radeon HD 6700M Series), I installed it's graphic driver fglrx for ATI Radeon & catalyst control center with this commands. Well I don't see any problems in your output. Quad core processor (you said 8 in your OP, but it's not, it's only 4) with a load of ~1 means it's only ~25% utilized, so you're not running out of CPU.

You have plenty of RAM available and are hardly using any cache, so swappiness isn't an issue either. If you run top while executing a process that's slow to respond, does anything pop up and show heavy CPU usage? HDDs are notoriously slow as well.

Once the data gets cached it shouldn't be too bad, but the first time you run anything it might take a few seconds to fetch all of the necessary data from the drive. I haven't installed an OS on a mechanical HDD in over 5 years because they're so terrible. You could also have a dying drive, what is the output of 'smartctl -a' for your system drive? Well I don't see any problems in your output.

Concerning the ' top' command you can see the output: Concerning th HDDs, you are right about this, but one thing I should say it that the HDD is very new (I bought it since the last month), and this is the output of smartctl command. Maybe you could be more specific about what runs slow.
