------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-23-09 18:27 ------- Created an attachment (id=892) --> (http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/attachment.cgi?id=892&action=view) output of 'ps -A' on 9.2 cooker box AFAICR, whatever is automatically starting on boot has not been changed by me from what the installer set up, except the choice of display manager, plus adding gpm from comment 23 URL as requested. The ps -A listing was done immediately upon boot and login as root on vc1. Only after ps -A did I start mc, which took about 110 seconds. Security (AFAIK) on this cooker box is as follows: 1-During install, the default security level (minimum?) was accepted 2-During install, no users were added after providing the root password 3-After install, one user was added: 'useradd -u 500 someuser', then 'passwd -d someuser' 4-After install, kdebase-kdm was installed and made active via DISPLAYMANAGER=kdm in /etc/sysconfig/desktop. 5-After kdebase-kdm was made login manager, I logged into X as root and configured kdm via KDE Control Center, changing info on tabs "Users" and "Convenience". a-I unhid root. b-I changed User Image Source to "User,admin". c-I changed User Images for user someuser to ic-tux.png. d-I changed Preselect User to "Previous". e-I checked "Focus password". f-I checked the box "Enable password-less logins". If you want more info, please tell me how to get what you want. -- 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..
