One thing I observe is that it takes considerable time from when I click on 'Shutdown' in the Main view, until the XO actually stops.
Happened to see the Linux shutdown messages (Is there a way to ask for these instead of the "don't do these" screen?) and it seemed to several times attempt to do something with a .security directory (which I don't have) -- each time timing out. I believe that if accessing a missing .security directory were not repeated, considerable time would be saved in the duration of shutdown. mikus p.s. What my XO display shows me for a specific situation is not 100% consistent. An example is shutdown -- about 1 in 40 times, instead of the "don't do these" screen I've seen the Linux shutdown messages, or I've seen out-of-sync garbage. Likewise, about 1 in 30 times, when during booting the 'circle of dots' gets near 8 o'clock the screen goes a uniform dark gray, and stays that way until the Main view cursor shows. [I've seen other questionable display contents -- but the above ones occur frequently enough for me to remember.] _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list Sugar@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
