The problem here is that the gdm login window will launch nearly a entire gnome session, which contributes several seconds to gdm start. And when normal user login, all gnome apps belongs to gdm user first will quit, while the login user's gnome-session will wait for the eights programs of user gdm quiting, after that the login user's gnome-session will starts. This process will greatly slow down the user login. After remove all apps excepts gdm-simple-greeter.desktop, the gdm start reduces < 7s, login process reduces to near 12s. The gdm GUI will become ugly, maybe some modification on gtkrc will be helpful. (Note: with the following packages removed.) 2. pulse audio contributes nearly 12s to login process. using zypper to remove all pulse audio, which will auto install esound-daemon, reduces 12s. 3. compiz contributes nearly 8s to login process. using zypper to remove all compiz package, reduces 8s. PS: The differences from a blank installation, just for your information, not important. the hp-systray in gnome-session using libqt4, so I just disable it for not loading libqt4. And also remove system-config-printer, which is from fedora, there already has yast2 printer. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
