I'm using kde2.1.0-1x and do not have the splash screen hang, but I do see the long logout problem. So I tried commenting out the LD_BIND_NOW line in startkde.

When I re-started kde, I got the spash screen hang!!! I uncommented the line, and the hang went away.

Maybe something else in the script has changed.....

click 'Logout' to when it actually logs out (the drive doesn't seem to be doing anything during the delay)...I completely uninstalled everything of KDE2 that I could, and did a fresh install...

Anyone else still having the Logout delay?

I havn't got the 2.1.1 isntalled yet so I havn't checked the new startkde script to see is suse fixed the problem but look in there for a line like LD_BIND_NOW=true kdeinit +kdesktop +kcminit +kicker +klipper +khotkeys kwrited If that line is still there it needs to be commented out. That fixes the splash screen hang, the long logout problem, and another one I can't remember right now.

You might try removing the loooonnnnngggg filenames and ksmserverrc in ~/.kde2/share/config and try again. -- Mark Hounschell dmarkh@cfl.rr.com
