I am having having exactly the same problem. The boot is swift. However, I experience delay getting to the login screen. Sometimes it is logging in (i.e. getting to a Desktop) and sometimes I am able to get a desktop in about 2-3 mins, but then my desktop freezes. All of this happens in random order.
I am running a Sony VAIO PCG-K115Z (Intel Mobile Pentium 4, 1 Gig RAM, Mobility Radeon 9200). I must also add that I was able to run the previous version of Ubuntu (v7.04 flawlessly). I have since upgraded, formatted and re-installed Gutsy. -- [Gutsy] GNOME takes too much time to load during system boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151544 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
