It still starts as fast as when the buddy list is opened, it's just that the "Starting Gaim Internet Messenger" is displayed for way longer than it should, between 5 and 10 seconds. I believe the case here is that gnome or whatever it is doesn't get notified of gaim finished starting so instead the "busy cursor" and startup notification times out.

I assume I have my packages up to date, mind you I'm a total noob with ubuntu since I just changed distributions a week ago.
