How to accelerate the initiating of xfce4

chengshiding · 2011-12-15 09:07:06

It is so slowly to login my desktop while i boot or reboot my computer. so , What method can speed up the initiating of xfce4?
especially, the wbar and conky is unsynchronizing with the xfce4, which could lead a very bad problem. It looks like conky and wbar is opacity.
So much for this.
thanks!

You could remove services or daemons you don't need. Or install a faster Linux distribution.

My Xfce starts very fast... I don't know exactly, maybe one or two seconds. What takes time is the BIOS, GRUB, then the kernel detecting the hardware, then the distro loading some stuff (and occasionaly checking the disks). X itself is loaded very quickly.

thanks, main delay is not BISO, kernel load , slim log manager , it is just the xfce4. but it is not slow when i logout then relogin.
still, this is context daemons section in the /etc/rc.conf
DAEMONS=(hwclock @sensors @cpufreq @network @adsl @syslog-ng !netfs @crond @dbus slim)
@ of front daemon mean the daemons is Asynchronous start .
so, i think if it is related to this daemons.

Are you using Arch Linux? (I am... But I'm not using SLiM or any login manager.)

Try to create a brand new empty account. Then login with the new one to see if it is still slow ?
