Gnome among other programs (eg firefox) _really_ doesn't like that. If you haven't created separate users you should try that and see does it improve matters. > the /opt system is running fine on the thin clients. > > but the / system is waiting waiting for ??? when running Gnome. The system running on the thin clients is most likely not the problem. However, when you login, you don't actually login to the thin client, you login straight to the server. If things are slow, chances are it's on the server we need to look. > > > I've been told to install kubuntu-destop and then edubuntu-desktop > > > or switch gdm->kdm->gdm. I doubt this will help. Gnome and ldm work fine for lots of people. In fact the thin clients don't run the system display manager so that really shouldn't help at all. The error about things not starting could well be down to another gnome session on the same profile. If you're already using different users and that doesn't help, you should open a terminal and type "top". This program will list the processes using most cpu time. Hit q to quit it.
