How did you upgrade your kernel? |
| 10 |
|

First things first, check your setup for anything obvious. I don't |
| 12 |
know much about KDE but I've seen problems like this with gnome when |
| 13 |
the machine's networking is not setup correctly. Check your /etc/hosts |
| 14 |
and hostname to ensure they are correct (not that upgrading your |
| 15 |
kernel should affect them). Do a diff between your configs to check |
| 16 |
nothing untoward has changed. Also capture and diff dmesgs from |
| 17 |
booting each kernel. Finally, check your network interfaces with |
| 18 |
/sbin/ifconfig. |

If that doesn't show anything interesting you will need to try and |
| 21 |
isolate the cause of the problem. Login as a local user on the |
| 22 |
console. Do a "ypcat passwd" and confirm that the command completes |
| 23 |
quickly and the user information is correct. If so then your network |
| 24 |
and NIS are fine. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Next do an "ls -l ~<user>" with your NIS user name. If that completes |
| 27 |
quickly and shows your home directory then NFS is fine. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
If that all works fine then we are back to KDE. Next step I would |
| 30 |
suggest is strace'ing it to see what it is delaying on. See how you |
| 31 |
get on with the other stuff first. |
