In my attempt to improve the start up time here are some of the things I attempted and their success
sudo vi /etc/init.d/rc and found the line "CONCURRENCY=none" and changed none to startpar sudo vi /etc/sysctl.conf and add the line "vm.swappiness=10" to the end Open firefox at url "about:config" search for IPV6 and change value to true. sudo vi /etc/default/grub changed : GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to be : GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="ipv6.disable=1 quiet splash" These changes improved things slightly. Finally I discovered this Finally made the boot up go super fast with adding a startup contab for root sudo crontab -u root -e that hunts down and kills the udevadm process that was gumming up the works @reboot ps -ef | awk '{ print $8, $2 }' | grep udevadm | awk '{ print "sudo kill "$2 }' | sh Now the boot up is 30 seconds and seems to be working fine for a couple months. -- Upgrade to latest distribution 9.10 has left my computer with serious issues with booting. Usually just freezes. Othertimes takes over 500 seconds to boot unless udevadm is killed in the @bootup in the root crontab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470190 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
