It took about 8 seconds to do the same on my desktop machine running Debian Sid, i.e., I typed startx and everything was ready about 8 seconds later. It's a lot slower on my laptop, though, which has a 5400 RPM SATA disk. The drives on the desktop machine are 15000 RPM SAS. At some point I'll make sure Gnome is properly functional on the laptop and time it. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
