No problem with the hard drive? hdparm -tT /dev/hda might tell you something?

Re: [expert] KDE start up is too slow!!

2003-10-06 Thread Kaveh Gh

 Dear All,

 As I've had a problem in X start-up( it was too slow
), I've taken a look in /etc/hosts file. I have a NAT,
DHCP server act as a gateway to the outside and it has
not problem. but one of my stations in my private LAN
had prob. I've added the localhost.local-domain
localhost names to /etc/hosts file and reboot the PC.
The problem was solved!   It's ok that the reason of
prob was some network misconfiguration. So, thanks for
your help.

Re: [expert] KDE start up is too slow!!

2003-10-05 Thread Kwan Lowe
  Now the configuration, installation is the same as
 before but now KDE is starting up too slow. Please
 help me to find out the reason.

Slow startup of the window manager (be it Gnome, KDE or something else) is
usually caused by a network misconfiguration such as a bad hosts file,
incorrect /etc/resolv.conf settings, or a bad route. If the system cannot
determine its hostname, for example, it may try for a while before timing
out.

Do you notice constant disk activity until KDE is ready? In other words,
does the system appear to be waiting or does something always appear to be
going on?
