I've seen several reports of the splashscreen intermittantly staying about 20 secs after login is finished. I think someone said that this was while the rhn applet was being started.
At one time, I thought that this was related to some rhn-applet problems, but those seem to be fixed in bug #103871 and bug #103820 (rhn-applet-2.0.10-6) and this behavior persists.
Timed it today, it's exactly 120 seconds. So it seems to be waiting for a timeout or something. According to http://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-beta-list/2003-August/msg01526.html and http://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-beta-list/2003-August/msg01653.html, this was an upstream problem and has been fixed. (?)
all right. lets hope it'll be fixed when we upgrade then.
This turns out to be config-dependent, I think. My wife doesn't see this when she logs in on the same account. Any files I should compare?
Sorry, I meant same box, different account.
Could look at ~/.gnome2/session
Does the problem still exist in the current version?
