[gentoo-user] KDE takes ages to show password screen after suspend

2010-05-07 Thread Roman Naumann
Hi, when I suspend my computer, KDE locks the session. This usually happens, when I close my laptop lid. When I open it again, it takes 1 to 20 seconds (seamingly random) untill the login screen appears. During this time, I just see a black screen and a mouse pointer (somewhere), but I cannot

[gentoo-user] Short history in terminal (without X)
