Hi list,
_ on my SuSE10.3 plain vanilla, there is heavy disk i/o at startup. So much that it renders my PC nearly unuseable. This goes on for like 10 minutes. Then goes away, all is good. - initially I thought it was Kmail doing something...may still be.
A "ps auxw" gives me 50+ lines with
vk 3725 0.0 0.2 25428 4756 ? S 09:06 0:00 kio_file [kdeinit] file /tmp/ksocket-vk/klaunchermnooIa.slave-s
I did remove beagle/kerry the other day, using the advise given by David C. Rankin of this list. This worked (I think) very well. So I take it, it's got nothing to do with that? Any hints?
(Beagle, I did: sudo rpm -e $(rpm -qa | grep beagle) kerry && rm -r ~/.beagle)
The next cure is to look at the task bar for the green "openSuSE Updater" icon. Right click and select configure. Uncheck the "start at login" checkbox. Save the settings. Right click the updater icon again and choose "quit". This will cure the slowness. You will just need to remember to check for updates manually or set Yast->Software->Automatic Online Update to run weekly/daily (fit your preference) at a specified time. After you have rid yourself of beagle and opensuse updater, your system will function normally on login. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
