Feature changed by: Stephan Kulow (coolo) Feature #306459, revision 5 Title: Use speedboot on 11.2 or 11.3 - openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed + openSUSE-11.2: Done Priority Requester: Desirable - openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed + openSUSE-11.3: Done Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: andrea florio (anubisg1) Description: Mandriva is currently using Speedboot to allow the enduser the machine is booting faster: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=mandriva_speedboot&num=1 i think we could use it too, on my aspire one for example the machine boot in about 16 seconds (pretty fast eh?) fro grub lo SHELL or XDM login, the desktop manager take almost same time, about 15 seconds.. lots of time compared to boot time, infact if i use autologin before be able to use the pc i have to wait about 32seconds because, evenif earlyxdm is enable, xdm service itself is the last service before reaching init 5 Discussion: #1: andrea florio (anubisg1) (2009-05-29 18:16:09) fro grub lo SHELL == from grub to SHELL (sorry for typos) + #2: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2009-06-09 11:35:22) + earlyxdm is doing exactly what you describe as speedboot. So if it does + not work, file a bug with bootcharts -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306459
