Well, good morning to all in the list. |

I've run into a silly issue with loading xorg+gnome. I've split the |
| 7 |
process in three stages. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
1) Loading xorg (startx). This stage works as expected and takes ~1 second. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
2) Insanely long delay. This stage is weird and takes ~12 minutes (have |
| 12 |
measured it several times, though slightly imprecise). |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
3) Loading Gnome 2.20. This stage works as expected and takes ~1 second. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
After the third stage everything works fine and smooth and |
| 17 |
near-instantaneous (quite opposite Windows :p ) |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
The second stage (the insanely long unexplainable delay) takes the |
| 20 |
mentioned ~12 minutes. There is no harddisk activity at all. The only |
| 21 |
thing I have is a black screen and the black'n'white standard X-cursor |
| 22 |
(though it does react instantaneously on mouse movements :p ). |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Does anybody know where to look for information useful to find the |
| 25 |
problem. I haven't found any logfile with any information related to |
| 26 |
this weird delay, which of course is consistent with the complete lack |
| 27 |
of harddisk activity. |
| 28 |

Kind regards, |
