A few days ago I installed Ubuntu Karmic on my PC, ad configured it to use LXDE. Everything was working fine, except that after I inserted my password at GDM it took ages to get to the desktop (about 16 seconds).
I checked the logs for a culprit, and I found in /var/log/gdm/xsplash-user.log those suspicious lines:
Code: Select all
[21:19:37:-1758809696 - MSG] throbber started (50 frames)
[21:19:52:-1773218135 - MSG] ** timeout **
[21:19:53:-1774407448 - MSG] fade finished
[21:19:53:-1774407151 - MSG] exiting...
So maybe LXDE needs a patch about this too?
(Sorry if this is a known issue, I couldn't find any reference)
