I tried putting the follow along the xorg.conf: date >> /tmp/res.txt
But didn't work. I'll look for something like that, and tell the result. Thanks!

Assuming you have not set the option 'DontVTSwitch' in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, your X server is locking the keyboard completely during this mysterious pause. Presumably the ability to switch consoles returns after the login prompt, but by that time it is not useful to you :-( You mentioned before that the machine is not connected to the LAN, but if you could connect it and start an SSH server, then you could login remotely and monitor the log file from another machine. Hopefully someone can advise you of other debugging options. It would be helpful for example if you could find a way of telling the X server to write time stamps to the log file. -- Liam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
