Well those processes look OK If booting takes the normal time, but everything in KDE is slow. It might be worth trying a different KDE account or a different Window Manager. It is possible I suppose that your account may be screwed in some way ? If Linux is taking a lot longer to boot it might be something more fundamental such as a Hard Drive problem. I dont know if the syslog would show such problems, but it would not hurt to look. derek
