You're not alone, I'm seeing these intermittent hangs at init time on Debian unstable at: "Waiting for /dev to be fully populated" (udevsettle) "Loading kernel modules" (which I assume is modprobe) But, I'm not seeing any hangs in X11 (yet). -- Cheers, Alistair. 137/1 Warrender Park Road, Edinburgh, UK. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
