Package: wdm
Version: 1.27-2.1
Severity: normal

The start of wdm will take a long time with a heavy processor load. The wdmLogin
process will cause a heavy processor load. The strace(1) of the wdmLogin
process shows, it will open every file below:
		/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/**

An extract of the strace will show the following:
    ...
	stat64("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/helvO14-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=5465, ...}) = 0
	open("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/helvO18-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz", O_RDONLY) = 10
	fcntl64(10, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC)        = 0
	fstat64(10, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=6407, ...}) = 0
	old_mmap(NULL, 6407, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 10, 0) = 0x40025000
	close(10)                               = 0
	munmap(0x40025000, 6407)                = 0
	stat64("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/helvO18-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=6407, ...}) = 0
	open("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/helvO24-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz", O_RDONLY) = 10
	fcntl64(10, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC)        = 0
	fstat64(10, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=8003, ...}) = 0
	old_mmap(NULL, 8003, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 10, 0) = 0x40025000
	close(10)                               = 0
	...
	open("/var/run/wdm/.fonts.cache-1.TMP-Q2Kz9c", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0600) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
	open("/var/run/wdm/.Xdefaults", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
	uname({sys="Linux", node="bauhaus.werthmoeller.de", ...}) = 0
	open("/var/run/wdm/.Xdefaults-bauhaus.werthmoeller.de", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
	open("/var/run/wdm/.Xdefaults", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
	...

If needed, I could send a full strace of the wdm and wdmLogin startup process.

Hi, Vesa and Martin,

Reviewing some of the ancient wdm bug reports, noticed that you already 
solved this problem, so I am closing this bug report.

Thanks for your feedback,
