Hi, I'm suddenly experiencing a weird slowdown on bootup. Things proceed normally until:
Starting system log daemon : syslogd Then, it hangs for a long time until I get syslogd klogd The test of the bootup process then proceeds at a _glacial_ pace until I get the login prompt. I then login O.K. I have an alias "alias x='startx -dpi 100' " When I type "x" it takes a while to start up X, which is something new. Thereafter, things seem O.K. The only " major" things I've done recently involve editing /etc/init.d/network and /etc/nsswitch.conf. /etc/hosts has a line for my hostname/domain name. ? any ideas what this is all about. I use Slink; sysklogd 1.3-31 ; kernel 2.2.12 Thanks, Howard Mann.
