I have several desktop computers running Fedora 8. I'm able to login from the console in a reasonable amount of time (about 30 seconds before the desktop icons appear and the Fedora menu is active). However, I have one user (and there may be others) for whom login on certain Fedora 8 machines is *very* slow. I timed it at 90 seconds for the desktop icons to appear and another 60 seconds before the Fedora menu was active. SSHing as this user is quick, so it's nothing to do with authentication and such. It's the very same hardware and software (the very same machine) that is quick for me and many other accounts, so it appears to be a problem just with his account.
I'm at something of a loss as to how to even approach debugging this. I did notice some errors involving DBUS in his ~/.xsession-errors file, but I don't know if they are relevant. I've appended the file here in case anyone sees something there that is helpful.
I'd be grateful if anyone could help me make some progress on this error.
Thanks,
Scott
