Is there any use for the PC speaker support on Eee? I can't find any way to hear its beeps on my 701. > I'm unsure why portmap and rpc.statd are not postponed until after > xdm had started; I'll look in to that. I think that insserv starts a service as soon as possible. On my system dependencies for gdm go like this: syslog -> dbus -> hal -> gdm And for ssh: syslog -> ssh So insserv schedules ssh to start together with dbus, while it would probably be better to schedule it parallel to gdm. I guess the situation is similar with portmap. As far as I know you can only change this by changing the dependencies of init scripts. > But there are two really significant things still left: the BIOS time > (9 seconds I think when I measured it) and the X startup.
