I don't know much about KDE but I've seen problems like this with gnome when the machine's networking is not setup correctly. Check your /etc/hosts and hostname to ensure they are correct (not that upgrading your kernel should affect them). Do a diff between your configs to check nothing untoward has changed. Also capture and diff dmesgs from booting each kernel. Finally, check your network interfaces with /sbin/ifconfig. If that doesn't show anything interesting you will need to try and isolate the cause of the problem. Login as a local user on the console. Do a "ypcat passwd" and confirm that the command completes quickly and the user information is correct. If so then your network and NIS are fine. Next do an "ls -l ~" with your NIS user name. If that completes quickly and shows your home directory then NFS is fine. If that all works fine then we are back to KDE. Next step I would suggest is strace'ing it to see what it is delaying on. See how you get on with the other stuff first. Cheers, Duane Griffin. --=20 "I never could learn to drink that blood and call it wine" - Bob Dylan -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
