Work fine with current version (KDE4.1 RC)
Ciao,

No, it doesn't. This issue has been laying around for a very long time now and affects all KDE 4 releases. I usually don't care about login delay as I power up my desktop only once a day, but since I own a notebook I get to see it more often. On my Toshiba Satellite (Centrino 1.6 GHz, 2 GB RAM, fast hard-drive) the boot sequence (from power-on to KDM being ready) is actually shorter than the time KDE needs to log me in. I also tried to empty my .kde directory like Caleb and it doesn't really get faster. I am currently using Ubuntu 9.10 Beta but this issue is much older. such problems are usually an indicator of a bad dns setup. check how long "host localhost", "host <local net host>", "host google.com", etc. take in all network configs (including none). To investigate the problem further, you could do the following: Install and configure bootchartd (apt-get install bootchartd bootchart) and prevent that the bootchartd is stopped when kdm is started (for example, by deleting the symlink / etc/rc2.d/S99bootchart => May not work for dependency based boot). Then restart your computer, log into Kde4 and waiting until the system was fully loaded. Then stop bootchartd by /etc/init.d/bootchart start (!). After that you can get an image of the boot process by starting bootchart (!= bootchartd). Of course further investigations are then needed to find the real cause. But it is a start... |
