I installed gnome from unstable and it does the same thing. The
splash screen comes up straight away and then just sits there.
Eventually sawfish appears but that is after a long delay.
Is it something with my X server or possible something with my
kernel. Maybe I need a particular module loaded (eg. sound or
something).
I am using XF86 v 4.3.0 from experimental. I need > 4.3 to support
my hardware.
I left my PowerBook-17 on over night and I couldn't believe it when I
saw a gnome 2.4 desktop with menus etc. I must take A VERY LONG TIME to
appear but it eventually does appear. If I can find out what is slowing
the whole process down then I would be very happy. I assume it is the
same thing that is slowing gnome 2.2 (from testing) down. I wonder if I
get menus/panels etc with the testing version of gnome ???
Any clues ???
