Comment 10 for bug 534040

Changing the wallpaper made no difference (was using the space one that has a number of wallpapers the change, that's why I thought that changing it might do something.
I just timed the issue exactly. From the time I hit enter after inputting my password, the theme music takes 2 seconds before it starts playing and plays until 7 seconds.
Before the desktop appears, another 20 seconds passes - total time from login to desktop is 27 seconds (worse than I thought). Hope there is some other log/s that can be looked at.
From grub to login is quick, but after login it's very slow. I can promise, despite what bootchart indicates, it takes far longer than 8 seconds for me to see a desktop - 19 seconds longer. It is unfortunate that I can't show you what is happening. Guess I could video the monitor during startup to desktop if that would help. Let me know if you think that is worthwhile.
