[Bug 513237] Re: Kubutu 9.10 with KDE 4.3.4 takes more than 3 min to boot

[Hein van Rensburg]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: kdebase
  
  I have 3 computers. a intel desktop and notebook and AMD desktop running
  Kubuntu 91.0 x 64 with KDE 4.3.4. All takes 3 min or more to start up
  due to some new check in the boot process which requires a network
  connection to be established.
  
  If the network connection is not established the system just sists there
  and waits until a programmed timeout which is more than 3 min. This is a
  real pain.
  
  We use pppoe connections with a username and password and if the system
  cannot estblish the connection if freezes and does not get to the plasma
  desktop after the login screen.
  
  The plasma desktop also just freeze randomly and also during the power
  saving routine when the computers is left for a few minutes. The only
  way to get around this is to reboot from alt F2 through sudo shutdown
  now -r.
  
- This is a priority problem which must be fixed as it affects many kde
- users.
+ Also when the network connection is broken the computers freeze and
+ cannot be used.
+ 
+ This is a priority problem which must be fixed before release of 4.4 as
+ it affects many kde users and is detrimental for Kubuntu and KDE
