im running karmic all updates as of ten minutes ago...
the only way i have been able to get ekiga to work (echo test) is to
kill pulseaudio before starting it. pasuspender -- ekiga doesnt do
the trick. other gnome apps work fine like sound-
recorder/banshee/flash/etc.
additionally, i receive
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
agreed that tip/link from Jean-François worked very well.
i still get the flashing gnome-panels and am seeking a solution to that,
the readahead hack sped everything up.. i would make a bootchart but i
have changed things, but the blackout after my gnome-panels dissapears
is less than 10 seconds
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 just installed hardy alpha 1...problem persists in the same way.
again gnome panels appear right away just like feisty, only to be near
immediately killed, then reappear 10+ seconds later. occurs in the same
way as gutsy, but maybe to be expected since this is only alpha 1.
i will be reverting
ok.
i have been restarting my computer all day testing different
configurations and looking at many, many...many post-gdm bootcharts...
in fact i triggered 2 'force checks' on my laptop so i rebooted at least
60 times haha
anyway, i have a few interesting things to report. i am running Gutsy
i too have a somewhat slow bootup time; nothing to the severity of many
minutes, but still, a significant increase when compared to feisty.
i am running a IBM T43 laptop, and also gutsy is installed on a DELL
INSPIRON B130. same problem with both.
one thing i do notice after looking @ ps
ok.
nice little bootchart program, wouldve been nice if i could have done
this a little easier tho...
anyways i modified the running parameters of the bootchart program so it would
not stop running when it gdm/init.d was processed, that way we could get a look
at what all was happening on my
forgot to add one little thing...soo tired...
i tried disabling gnome-at-visual (in session preferences {assistive
technology/AT}) because the chart showed a strange 2 seconds of zombie
time after login... but this did not do anything. also i seem to have
misinterpreted the chart referring to
