I have done a few updates on Ubuntu 12.04 which was installed via the WUBI installer.
The Aspire One Happy notebook dual boots with Windows 7 Basic.
Now Ubuntu desktop not responsive programs take ages to launch when clicked.

I have checked the drivers with jockey and all seems OK.
I've also installed other desktop managers, like Xubuntu and KDE and tried gnome classic.
No matter what I use. it's the same sluggish response.

For notebook like this i don't recommend Wubi. If you install Ubuntu with Wubi there is huge performance drop. I recommend installing native Ubuntu(Not with Wubi).
