Long delay between xdm and X startup



Hi!

After an /etc/init.d/xdm start nothing happens for 30-40 seconds, only
then X starts and the gdm login prompt pops up. startx works instantly,
no delay if I use gdm.

During the gap, xdm shows up in ps but no other (related) stuff.

This happens on a i386/P2-400 SMP and a powerpc/G3-366. 

I prefer gdm for the desktop anyway, but the powerpc machine is a laptop
with otherwise no GNOME installed.

Thanks

Christian
