Re: [gentoo-user] KDM is starting veeery slowly...
on one of my machines i killed kdm and x, and rm'ed everything in /tmp, now it starts in about 2sec, was about 26 before that, on my other machine i reemerged fontconfig and the startup time there went from 32 to alsa about 2sec so both solutions given seem to fix the problem ... (the 2 boxes are identical in installed versions, just diffrend hardware, xp 2000, p3 650) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I doesn't reemerge font-config, but i start xfs now at startup and after an reboot, KDM is running fine :-) THX to all Best Regards Ralf -- .-.

Re: [gentoo-user] KDM is starting veeery slowly...
I heard Jorge Almeida said: > I have that version of XFree and also no joy... Okay, so it is weird. There has just been a power outage, and when it went back up, KDM took 30 seconds to load here too. I'm now officially confused. :) Hmm, after some experimentation, it would seem that wiping out /tmp prior to starting KDM solves the problem. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks. :) -- S. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] KDM is starting veeery slowly...
and kdm needs about 30 seconds to start... :-( It could be because KDE and QT are very big resource hogs. :o) To speed things up, you might try using pre-linking - but I haven't tried it. Personally, I used XDM with KDE, and it worked just as well and reasonably quickly. Loading KDE was what took longer after that. These days I use Blackbox as my desktop instead - it's impressively lightweight. -- -- from: Jonathan "Chromatix" Morton mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: http://www.chromatix.uklinux.net/ tagline: The key to knowledge is not to rely on people to teach you it. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
