<div dir="ltr"><div>"the system stops working as expected" is not that easy, at least for me maybe, it's very hard to always notice that the system is working as expected or not. and sometimes the system doesn't *start* as expected to be from the beginning so it's not *stopping* here to notice it.<br>
<br>My previous story with fedora 10 is indeed a problem not optimization, it's a problem to try to load a non-existing device, I was not talking about disabling the auto-load of bluetooth and load it when needed but I was talking about a wrong assumption that my laptop had a bluetooth while it hadn't. (Imagine the contrary when it assumes that I haven't a bluetooth while I do have one).<br>

<br>My brother (a newbie) once asked me why there is a [FAILED] in the fedora 11 loading, when I fixed it he told me that since months he thought that his modem is broken and doesn't work and he would never change his mind until he -as a matter of curiosity- asked me about this [FAILED]! the point is: he is not technical but he noticed something and just wanted to report it...<div class="im">

</div>This boot animation/graphical splash will most probably be decided by<br>
the Canonical design team. [as was done for Karmic]<br>
<br>
They decided to drop the progress bar since it was not accurate at<br>
showing the progress [starts , zooms , stops , zooms again] and not<br>
really necessary.<br>
