Public bug reported:
The ipw3945 wireless driver causes a delay in boot of over 60-80
seconds. I have reported this bug previously for ubuntu dapper but no
one ever quite got to finding the source of the problem.
Originally we noticed that this problem affect only dual-core users and
we theorized it was because certain script where now being executed out
of order causing the ipw3945 driver to soft-lockup because a certain
component was not ready. There is a temporary solution to the problem
though. If the network bootup initscript file is moved to right before
gdm's bootup then there's no delay. This also poses no problem because
by the time the user logs in and the desktop loads the driver is already
up and running.
I will attach a bootchart analysis of my boot so you can see. The
problem is obvious when looking at this file.
Note that this happens right out of the box, without any updates or
freshly installed software. No update has been committed yet to fix this
bug. If there's anything else I can provide to help with this problem
let me know.
