Comment 78 for bug 128803

ok.

nice little bootchart program, wouldve been nice if i could have done this a little easier tho...

anyways i modified the running parameters of the bootchart program so it would not stop running when it gdm/init.d was processed, that way we could get a look at what all was happening on my T43 during the 15+sec freeze period. i recorded 85 sec. of time, approximately 65 beyond the point where gdm is initialized. like i said before, blank gnome-panels will come up after about 3-4 seconds (@36sec), then disappear almost IMMEDIATELY (notice how nautilus is initialized RIGHT after the panels in the chart). the heavy disk i/o seems to correlate VERY nicely with nautilus activity(until 51sec). Although the gap also matches well with dhcdbd activity--
--i tried a little fix someone posted about automatically setting resolv.conf to 0.0.0.0 to avoid dns issues...no change.

am i waiting on my wireless card, before loading background/panel apps/etc. in this situation?

im trying to gather info from the chart but its somewhat cryptic to my novice eyes but i hope it will be of some use.

here is a link in case my attachment doesnt work:
