In fact, after some automatic update, this problem was partly solved. I don't know what update made the contribution. But it still occurred about every 20 or 30 times' startup. When it happened, I need to wait for about 3-5 minutes. Then the login in window appears, but usually with no sound. When I logged in, I usually found there's neither internet connection nor sound. So I need to restart. After restart, it returned to normal. So, I guess the problem would probably be the compatibility between Ubuntu 7.10 and the sound card and network card integrated in my ASUS M2N-E motherboard. Thank you for your concern about the problem I reported.
