Extremely slow startup - can take minutes to get from login to fully
loaded gnome (this is on an amd k6 300mhz with 96mb ram).

Could this be related to fonconfig, etc.?

Still seeing this? I have no problems with login time. Is the CPU
overloaded or is it waiting for IO?

First time you log in it will generate a font cache in your home
directory (at least used to, can't test now) which takes a little
time. Should only happen on first login, though.
Comment 2 Jeff Waugh 2003-07-15 10:18:09 UTC 
This was probably fixed through a combination of recent fontconfig and
libbonobo fixes. Happy for you to close this one. :-) Thanks Jens!
