kde pauses during startup
i installed a fresh woody yesterday, and during first boot, kde took < 60
seconds to load. any attempts to load kde since then take > 7 minutes for
kde 2.2.2 and ~5 minutes for 3.0.x. the splash screen halts at "initialising
system services" (the 2nd icon) for a couple of minutes, before the splash
vanishes altogether and the system does nothing, clearly waiting for a
timeout or 3 before finally loading.
some applications take over a minute to load, konq being one
the system is a PII 400 w/ 128MB ram krnl2.4.18
if anybody has ANY ideas how to help, please cc me
thank you
