Hi David, thanx for replying. You are doing great work on LightDM KDE Greeter, thank you!
After some testing with various backgrounds it seems that the delay is always specific to each background image and I was unlucky enough to select the worst of them which is the one with the wafer/processors (third one below @ 2560x1440). Some of the images I tried are the following (from simplest to most complex): http://wallpaperswide.com/ubuntu_desktop_blue-wallpapers.html 1280x720 - 220KB - 3sec delay 1600x900 - 333KB - 3.1sec delay 2560x1440 - 990KB - 3.5sec delay http://wallpaperswide.com/white_wolves_2-wallpapers.html 1280x720 - 298KB - 3.7sec delay 1600x900 - 465KB - 3.9sec delay 2560x1440 - 1.1MB - 4.2sec delay http://wallpaperswide.com/processors-wallpapers.html 1280x720 - 369KB - 13.9sec delay 1600x900 - 525KB - 17.2sec delay 2560x1440 - 1.1MB - 25.9sec delay As we expected, a bigger resolution and/or file size produces a bigger delay. However the last wafer/processors images have something unique that causes this huge delay. Maybe it's my PC that's getting old (AMD X2 4400+, 2GB RAM, made in 2005) so it would be nice if we could test those last background images on a faster pc. P.S Do you happen to know why after the login and before ksplash loads the icons, a black X cursor appears for about a second? Is this normal X behavior? I haven't seen this cursor for quite some time :P -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069183 Title: LightDM KDE Greeter loads the desktop half a minute after login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/1069183/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
