Just for grins I installed a script in rc.local to furiously run ps f -e in a loop until it sees a gnome-terminal process in the list and record the results in a log file. I got about 40 MB of ps listings (which is a lot to look at :-), but the most interesting bit I did see was this: 454 ? Ss 0:00 /lib/systemd/systemd-kmsg-syslogd 463 ? Ss 0:00 /sbin/udevd 467 ?

What the heck is udevd doing with all those kids, and could it be what is responsible for it taking 20 seconds to do a login after the initial boot? -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
