Could someone try this for me: open a console and do killall nautilus. If it works (like it does for me), the whole desktop will freeze for roughly the same time as when starting up. I'm pretty sure that this is a nautilus issue, as my system freezes right before nautilus comes up (no desktop icons), and when it unfreezes, I get them back. I've hacked a workaround for this bug by using the readahead trick here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=565651 With this in place, it's not too bad. But there's a pause before GDM comes up now (I'd imagine that readahead is that chugging away here...).

I have a gut feeling: I am trying kernel 2.6.25-rc, which works very well for my laptop, minus the fact that sometime the gnome login fails with strange dbus messages: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10041 .

[Bug 128803] Re: [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup
I have created a graph of a login to gnome in hardy using the method described here: http://www.gnome.org/~federico/news-2008-02.html I have applied the patch there to the ubuntu version of gnome-panel (I have actually dropped ubuntu patch 16_* because I was to lazy to have a look why that patch could not be applied to the instrumented source). I have done the profiling using a freshly created user and I have created the graph during the second login to that users profile. I have stopped shortly after I had a usable gnome-terminal after about 60 seconds. Looks like there is something strange going on with pulseaudio and esd at the beginning of startup. Compiz wastes a large amount of time finding out the current configuration using glxinfo and nvidia-settings. There are lots of top_panel size requests, I have not yet looked what that means exactly, though. It would also be interesting to know what happens at second 26 - apt-cache and modinfo take a huge amount of time there which is probably not needed at that point of time. I don't know how useful this is, but perhaps someone gets an idea. ** Attachment added: startup graph http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11968137/prettygraph.png -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

if you want it free youve got to be willing to spend some time wrestling with it.. luckily ubuntu has worked very well on the several machines i have installed it on, for myself and others. however every single one of them had quirks, some of which took a LONG time to figure out, and other less serious ones i have yet to figure out. the nice part about problems is it forces you to get personal with your machine and actually learn what the computer is doing rather than simply looking at a splash screen? if you can, put ubuntu back on the machine, all updates, then make a bootchart.. that little program was very useful in diagnosing problems because it visually attaches the time elapsed to individual processes. it has allowed me to explore the scripts in my system i did not even know about. sudo apt-get install bootchart the charts (pictures) will be in /var/log/bootchart/ make one of those during the 5 minute wait and maybe we can visually see the culprit in your specific installation. another possibility would be to disable usplash altogether, so you can see the output instead? an easy way to accomplish this: sudo apt-get install startupmanager then look under System Settings Start-up Manager good luck to ya -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Re: [Bug 128803] Re: [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup
Your comments were not really constructive, helpful, or nor do they in anyway acknowledge a very real problem with an ubuntu installation gone very wrong. It takes nearly 5 minutes to boot. Nothing that I have done changed any configuration other then stock installation. I have enjoyed the look into the Unix world enough however that I decided to give Unix a closer look and finally bought a Mac. Hopefully with professional coordinated support I will not experience the same problems. If the lack of support in the Ubuntu community breeds frustration in new users, it is hardly a fix for more experienced users to take the tack of less that constructive criticism of that frustration. Reeling off benchmarks of seconds means absolutely NOTHING to those forced to wait nearly 5 minutes for THEIR particular machine to boot up.

Seb, just out of curosity, what are your criteria for a usable desktop loaded? Do you mean when everything (ie panel applets) is in place *and* the hard drive is quiet? 'cause I based all my numbers on the moment at which the hard drive stops hammering (since I think there is no other way to get valid/reliable/consistent benchmark results). Recently, I discovered a truly neat tutorial (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=565651) for manually using readahead to cut down my login time to 14-20 seconds in gutsy, but it is a hack on top of ubuntu, not a real solution (or at least, I would prefer for ubuntu to do it for me: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/login-readahead) -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

well, i read on ubuntuforums.org that this issue seems solved in hardy. i guess there wont be a fix for gutsy. concerning the gdm login... id rather wait a bit more on the complete boot process than after the gdm login. that readahead thingy had some positive impact here. before i had to wait a minute til i could work, now its 29 seconds. honestly, 1 minute is anacceptable. not even windows takes that long. -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Yes: what normally there was (at least, when /etc/hosts was written by hand): 127.0.0.1 localhost my_fancy_hostname_not_qualified_here ...and if you have a fixed IP: 127.0.0.1 localhost 10.1.2.3 hostname.domain ...and on our Debian server it's still like that. This 127.0.1.1 thing is quite new for me. I do not know why it should make a difference, but still, it's strange. I suppose an interaction with the name service. In effect (without any change, with the 127.0.1.1 entry in /etc/hosts): (0)pern:~/www/DEAROOT% host 127.0.0.1 1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer localhost.

i since ditched feisty and went back to messing with gutsy. gutsy is in all a very good developmental release and i hope to see splendiferous things from hardy. this time however i installed xubuntu. i enabled compiz/emerald/NetworkManager, and have not had any of the problems described herein. i have read about a bug with compiz that kills the (gnome?)panels as i described above--i still think this may be an underlying issue for many. on my specific machine, i can tell that all applets/panels are loading, but i just cant see ANYTHING until they are all completely loaded. modified bootcharts confirm this. i have read that others compiling the most recent versions of compiz do not encounter this either. i installed gnome over the top of xubuntu and still the problem persists. i may compile compiz from git and see if that takes care of it, not worried about upgrading to hardy, i always do a clean install. peace -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

That's what I have too, but I think if you comment out the part where it picks between ccp and gconf, and you use ccp, then you don't get any of the advanced configuration stuff.

I have this problem too, but not just with GNOME. In GNOME, the panels don't load sometimes and alt+f2 doesn't work. I use Compiz so if I hit super+t to get a terminal, the GTK parts of the terminal never load (and then it goes black because it's non-responsive and Compiz knows it). If I then log out and login with Enlightenment, Enlightenment also fails to work right. Starting anything in Enlightenment, I get the top bar of the window glowing red, which is equivalent to Compiz dimming non- responsive apps.

Oh yeah and I forgot to mention that of course all these tests were done ~empirically (cold boot, one thing changed at a time). The second 34 seconds! time is, of course, not significative compared to no network interace configured. Furthermore, removing compiz + awn reduces the login time by 5 additional seconds (much less than I thought; I thought it would chop off 15 seconds). -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I am not perfectly sure that it is network-managers fault either. I properly removed it but the difference wasn't that huge. I still need to check that on other systems, though. Isn't there any proper way to tell which process takes how long during login?

Holy COW! That guy nailed it! As much as I *love* network manager, I never *suspected* it at all. Here are my benchmarks on my desktop computer. It uses a DHCP wired network interface. with network-manager = splash start to login ready: 32.48 seconds login to fully loaded*: 51.07 seconds without network-manager, no network interface configured splash start to login ready: 31.30 seconds (not significative) login to fully loaded*: 34.44 seconds! without network-manager, DHCP interface configured manually splash start to login ready: 32 seconds (not significative) login to fully loaded*: 34 seconds! *: no hdd scratching and all panel applets loaded There needs to be some serious profiling done here. -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Re: [Bug 128803] Re: [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup
Actually I am having the same problem too... From GDM login until my desktop is fully loaded, i takes about 40 seconds. I spent whole day trying to find out the problem (including following the instructions in the bug report) but none work for me... Jeff, 34 seconds is still considered a long login time in my opinion, edgy loaded much faster than this. Actually, my desktop with gusty loaded much faster than my laptop.

[Bug 128803] Re: [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup
thats one way to do itmaybe devs will realize how annoying this can be. this bug needs instructions on how to approach self-diagnosing the problem. many people have removed all applets with no results. sweetsinse seemed to do an extremely thorough job and suggested it may be a problem with the compiz script used by ubuntu. has this been explored by any developers knowledgable in this area? looking at bootchart doesn't mean anything to me, if i go through the trouble of patching and installing it to analyze login will someone take a look? first though, how do i do that? I for one use both compiz and deskbar as i have since edgy, and i've still noticed a good 15-30sec jump in login time since moving from feisty. removing them doesnt seem to change much, but when you're talking about 45sec login vs 60sec its still waaa too lng. -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The issue is not to realize how annoying the bug can be, it's to get useful datas on what is creating the slowness.

to the contrary, YES, switching to other distros also running Gnome 2.20 has made a big difference to some of the users above. I believe one person tried Arch linux with more panel aplets and still had 10sec less than Ubuntu. Then as you saw, anibal switched to Mandriva and seems to not have the problem anymore.

I have switched to KDE from Gnome because Gnome was taking too long to start up, and this did fix the problem for me. So I think it is a problem related to Gnome.

I don't know if edgy already had the issue, but feisty is considerably faster than gutsy, and I think the issue is about the regression from feisty to gutsy.
