OK here goes - Problem: Gnome takes ages to start - ages - upwards of 2 minutes.

Day before it was fine. No software or hardware changes, fsck clean, no updatesm no changes - its not even online currently as our inet is out. Any idea of the sudden change? All was fine the day before. once it loads all is normal.

I've seen gnome 2.4 take forever when no network is availble. I't not saying that's your problem but it's worth considering. Check out the syslog and see if you have any weird msgs.

hmmm... this is gnome 2.10

Might be the same though. It is on the network though, as I was playing cube multiplayer over our lan today. Where is syslog? can I tail -f it?

/me runs locate syslog aha!
/var/log/syslog ! cat it I will

I'll check it out as soon as I get home from work.
