There have been a few threads which seem to be describing the same
issue. That is, users are reporting that when starting GNOME through
startx that the panel takes a long time to come up, polkit may crash,
etc. I want to see if I can tie together some commonalities to help
make troubleshooting easier.
First, have all users experiencing this installed EVERYTHING from
packages? That is, if a user builds all GNOME bits from ports do they
see the problem? Are all users seeing slowness or crashes in GNOME
using startx (or some other non-GDM way of starting GNOME)? If they use
GDM does the problem go away?
If a user using packages starts GNOME with GDM, does the problem go away?
