Hi, On my system (FreeBSD 7.3 AMD64, system & kernel current as per today) it takes awully long to start up gnome (2.30) - "awfully long" meaning 2-3 minutes (this is on a Intel quadcore-CPU with 4GB RAM!) In my /etc/rc.conf I've got gnome_enable="YES" I've already ruled out the usual suspect being a missing/wrong entry in /etc/hosts (http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html#q20); my hostname ist resolvable including reverse-resolution, plus I've got the entries in my /etc/hosts. Is there any way to speed up gnome startup - or at least a pointer as to where I can start looking for the cause of the problem? Thanks in advance for any clue, -ewald
