------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-17-09 18:41 ------- #/etc/init.d/gpm stop /etc/init.d/gpm: no such file or directory. "Are you sure your system is not busy doing something else or than network is already working properly ? Running top in another console might be helpful.." Whatever it may be busy doing is something set up to be doing by the Mandrake 9.1 and 9.2 installation programs. As I have repeatedly written, IMMEDIATELY upon availability of login prompt, IMMEDIATELY upon booting, the FIRST thing I do upon logging in is 'mc', on tty1. Anything else that may be going on has nothing to do with anything I did, other than in package selection and configuration during install. This ALWAYS happens on EVERY install on EVERY system since 9.0. "The way startup is done now is causing X server to be displayed before all services are started and running." I have noticed this, and don't understand why it happens. I wish X would start only after all other services have been started. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: mc startup has actually been fubar since at least 9.0, possibly before that, but I can't remember. I haven't stopwatched it, but if started immediately upon 1st login after boot, it must be taking at least one minute, a seeming eternity, both in 9.1 and 9.2rc1. Upon entering mc at shell prompt, the screen is blanked, cursor goes to bottom left, and nothing happens for a while. Eventually, some liblow error messages quickly scroll up the screen too fast to read, and mc becomes ready to use. Hardware is rather old, P200 for rc1, with 128 MB RAM & PCI graphics card, but immaterially better on K6/2-500 with 256 MB RAM and same graphics adapter for 9.1, and on a P3-450 with 768 MB RAM and G450 graphics adapter..
