SUSE Shutdown slowly

mesh2005 · 05-05-2006, 11:47 AM

I use SUSE 10, I noticed that the shutdown / reboot is too slow, I saw the following lines at the shutdown / reboot ,
Laying out /etc/probe.d/.......
why is that?

not sure on the /etc/probe.d/.. but if you want it to shutdown quick I use

shutdown -hfn now

using the -f and -n options makes it faster, but it doesn't check as much. if you do a 'man shutdown' it shows all thoes options.

On another note, if this is recent what have you installed lately?

oh I mean /etc/preload.d not probe.d

this is the shutdown side of preloading.
You can disable preloading of specific apps of /etc/preload.d/ by delete app names you don't want to run in the /usr/bin/appspreloader.sh script. Add and subtract apps in this script as you please.
