Re: DEBIAN-Re: logging in takes ages
My problem, since upgrading is similiar. I get the prompt, enter username
and password and then wait. It seems to be account related. I can go to
other virtual terminals and log in as other users, but if I try the same
user, that
terminal will also hang. Typicall hang times seem to be as bad as 30 seconds.
Note, I almost always log in as root, so my problem may be root specific.
