I don't have a specific test for you to perform at the moment, but my first instinct, when I read your initial post some days ago, was that this was very indicative of a network timeout. I'm not a gnome expert by any means, so I'm glad Brian is helping, but I'd not give up the network configuration angle as another possible configuration issue. Especially since you mention you recently changed nsswitch.conf (and friends). Additionally, it occurs to me during Brian's troubleshooting with you that that sort of thing (network timeout) is often not logged with a default configuration, which is why you wouldn't see it in any of the normal logs. I suspect truss'ing would eventually find the network timeout issue if that really is the culprit. One thing you can try to do, though, in the mean time, is try using simpler (or older) versions of nsswitch.conf (try with just files or dns). If you recently added ldap for any reason, then I might even be persuaded to put money down on a bet. _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
