Yep, in my 2.5 ghz cpu KDE 4.2 takes 42 seconds between 'startx' (just 'exec startkde' in .xinitrc) and the full loaded desktop, with a direct compilation from area51 code. Debug enabled. You should check for any error in logs. (Just for the record, with the chrono in hand, firefox loads in 12 seconds) _______________________________________________ kde-freebsd mailing list kde-freebsd@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd See also http://freebsd.kde.org/ for latest information
