Server :: CentOS 5.5 64 Bit - Takes Too Much Time During Installation

Mar 30, 2011

I am installing CentOS 5.5 64 bit on a HP ProLiant server. The server has a configuration of 2 TB(500x4) HDD and 8 GB RAM. RAID 5 is enabled and mirroring is also going on. I made 7 partitions. Those are:

/boot - 200MB
/ - 80GB
Swap - 20GB
/usr - 100GB

[code]...

The problem i am facing is it takes too much time to format 100GB partitions while installing packages (during installation).

CentOS 5 :: X/Gnome Takes Long Time To Load And Sudo Takes Long Time To Execute

Oct 13, 2009

I am running Centos 5.3. I ran no updates, performed no installs, nor changed any configuration immediately prior to this issue. My problem is this: when I run the command startx (default runlevel 3), it is a long time (5-10 minutes) before Gnome startx, and once it does start applications will not run. Also, when I try to use sudo (from any environment, even ssh), it is a long time (5-10) before the command is executed.

I cannot say for sure, but it seems like this is an intermittent problem. Sometimes X takes a long time to start, but once it starts it will launch programs. Sometimes X takes a long time to launch, but once it starts it will only launch certain programs. Though presently X always takes a long time to start, and I cannot successfully launch any programs.

A while back a had a similar problem to this (x taking long time to start, sudo taking long time to execute) and it ended up being a DNS problem. Unfortunately, I cannot remember exactly what it was and I stupidly did not document it. Maybe this is also DNS related, I don't know.

I don't know what log files to look at for problems with X, Gnome, and sudo taking a long time to start.

CentOS 5 Server :: Vsftpd - Takes Long Time To Login From Remote Host

Aug 19, 2009

I've setup vsftpd correctly and it's running fine with local users (in the same LAN). However, when remote users wanna login to the server, it takes more than 1 minute to get in. Users do can login from remote. It just took too long. (It prompted for the username and password very fast.) Since the server is behind a router, I did configure the port forwarding for TCP 20-21. The centos version is 5.3. The vsftpd is v2.0.5.

CentOS 5 :: Mutt Starts Slowly / Why It Takes Such A Long Time?

May 21, 2010

Now I use mutt to manage the mail list.
But when I start to mutt, it takes a long time (about 1~2 minutes) to
load all the mail list, about 20 thousands mail.
I don't know why it takes such a long time.

Server :: Takes Time To Release File Handles - Get Corrupted - Deleted Too

Aug 26, 2010

The app in linux server(CentOS 5.3) uses files from a mount directory(Shared windows directory in read only mode). At the same time, the same file might be edited by user in windows env. We were assuming that as the windows folders are mounted in read-only mode in linux so any change done by user in windows environment would be fail safe i.e. can be safely committed to the file. But when the file concurrently used both by Linux and as well by windows, at some point linux does not release the file handles and the files get corrupted(deleted too). Earlier we were using win2k server and this step was hardly reproducible and win2k was releasing file handles quickly. But with centos, we really had touch time managing files.

Ubuntu Installation :: 10.04 Remix Takes Really Long Time To Boot After Auto Update

Jul 12, 2010

I recently broke down in the face of morbid curiosity and clicked that little version update button. it seems to run flawlessly (after i uninstalled the pesky touchpad) but it takes a long time to boot up now. at least a full minute. is this normal?

I will add also that it said my version of grub had been modified (which i dont remember doing, but may have) so i told it to leave the current one in place.

Ubuntu :: After Log In Takes Long Time To Show Desktop, Monitor Events At Log In Time?

May 24, 2011

It takes me a while to log in the splash screen just sits there for ages before i get to the desktop. Never used to be this slow and I'm not sure why. Firstly, I'm running Ubuntu 11.04, standard DE. I do have conky starting up in a script but it has the & at the end of the line so I didn't think this would cause it (or is there some special case for log in time on how & is treated?). However as a test I will comment out the line in the script and see if it is the cause.

However just for general knowledge and in case that isn't the problem, how does one go seeing what is happening during the time from when one log's in and the desktop is displayed? Is there some kind of log that shows the date/time that can be enabled or is there a debug mode that can be enabled somehow via special keys or maybe from grub?

CentOS 5 Server :: Login Via SSH Takes Over A Minute?

Nov 12, 2010

Just started to encounter this problem recently: after entering a valid password for a given user during an SSH login, it takes at least one minute to get to a prompt. It usually takes only a second to check the password and drop me to a prompt.

I haven't had this problem before - it seems to have started this week. Only thing I've done this week is run updates. Has anyone encountered this problem recently? Any ideas or fixes that may help solve this? Server info: not exposed to the Internet, only running SSH, fully patched version of CentOS 5.5 x86_64.

May 26, 2010

I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my PC ie AMD Athlon x64 with 15 GB for (root) partition and 2 gb for Swap Space,with 1.2 GB of RAM,but after the successful installation its not displaying the GRUB immediately, taking 90-270 seconds to display? What might be the reason.? I have windows XP on my pc,even for booting into Win XP, one needs the GRUB display, its taking almost 90-180 Seconds to display the GRUB(sometimes more than that). But this thing never used to happen in previous versions of Ubuntu? Why only for this specific Ubuntu 9.10?

Ubuntu :: 10.04 Takes A Long Time To Boot Up?

Jul 26, 2010

After I installed a new hard drive, when I booted up into Ubuntu, it would give me this error: "failed command: WRITE DMA". So I tried the workarounds and I guess it just covered the log with the Boot Splash, now it's taking a long time just to boot up.

General :: Vim Takes Long Time To Start ?

Feb 23, 2010

I'm having trouble with Vim in any terminal emulator I use. I have a link (vi) to vim. Occasionally it will take very long to load, whether I use 'vi' or 'vi file'. Before, if I could I would restart X, and then it would load instantly again, but I waited this time and it did load, after a minute or so. Is this a problem with X or vim?

OpenSUSE Hardware :: USB Disk Takes A Lot Of Time Mounting?

Jun 13, 2010

My DVD drive start working bad recently in KDE 4.4.3 - openSUSE Forums , but this is another very annoying thing happening in my openSUSE box. I have several flash drives, from several sizes and all have the same problem: When I plug them, the drive simply takes a LOT of time mounting and showing the data, but really, a LOT, and meanwhile the flash light blinks the desktop environment its FREEZE, until it shows the mounted drive. Some output from a recently plug that takes again a lot of time:

Ubuntu :: Notify OSD Is Squared And Takes Too Much Time To Close?

Mar 26, 2011

I don't know exactly how it started. It was working pretty well.Before I notice the OSD was messed up, I had disabled Compiz (to test some game) and I've been goofing around with the Awn Dock, moving it around the corners of the screen. Not sure what caused it to bug. I've tried restarting the machine, "sudo apt-get remove notify-osd" and "apt-get install..",I've tried changing system fonts..

What should I do to 'reset' it, or something?I'll be trying to fix it on my own over here. I'll post back if I get any luck at it.Completely disabling Compiz (Desktop Effects OFF) renders this:Doesn't look right.The first picture was taken with Compiz enabled.

Ubuntu :: Takes A Long Time To Open A Browser ?

May 11, 2011

After upgrading to a 64-bit Ubuntu 11.04, I have found that it takes a lot longer to open any browsers such as Firefox, Google Chrome or Opera. Does anyone know why? I thought 64 bit Ubuntu should be faster than the 32 bit version. Nevertheless, I see no difference besides the browser problem mentioned above.

Software :: GRUB2 Takes A Long Time To Load

Jan 5, 2010

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows XP on my system. After installing Ubuntu, it boots normally about once, and then the next time I try to boot, I have to wait a few minutes with it saying "GRUB Loading." I have read other threads about this that say that it is clearly a GRUB2 problem, and something about Windows overwriting something with the MBR; although I haven't booted into windows once in the process of installing Ubuntu (multiple times) or afterward. GRUB version 1.97~beta4.

Slackware :: Takes A Long Time To Delete A File?

Mar 6, 2010

It takes an awfully long time to delete a file when deleting it though one of the KDE programs, like kdevelop or konqueror file manager.

Deleting files with rm works fine. I suspect it has to do with KDE recycling bin mechanics which I know nothing about. I am running fluxbox wm if that matters.

Debian Configuration :: Statd Takes Too Long At The Boot Time

Mar 25, 2010

Since recently statd at the boot time takes, more then 30s or even more.

It is laptop configuration, no NFS server(?) lenny with few installs from backports (open office and .30 kernel - for Intel 5300) vmwware (7), as well firestarter firewall

Can I disable it or change the boot order (via sysv-rc-conf ), so I can speed up my boot time?

Debian Multimedia :: Xfce Takes A Long Time To Start?

Ubuntu :: File Properties Takes A Long Time To Open

May 6, 2010

I have a newly installed Kubuntu 10.04 running here, works fine except for one thing.

I have a kind of "fileserver" and it has a samba share that I have mounted in the home folder of my desktop computer ("/home/xxx/fileserver", the server is running an older version of Ubuntu, can't exactly remember what it is but the filesystem is ext2, if that's of any importance).

I have large files on the server, mostly video. When I use Dolphin (or Konqueror, doesn't make any difference) and right click one of these large files and choose Properties, it takes a LONG time to load the properties window. As if it copies the file to local hd before opening properties, or something.

The reason why I posted here and not in the networking section is, that I had the exact same setup with my previous installation which was Kubuntu 8.04, and also at least three different Ubuntu's before that. Never had this problem before, so I think my server and networking thingies are okay.

Ubuntu Networking :: Connecting To Wireless Network Takes Little More Time

Oct 26, 2010

I noticed that it takes a couple more seconds before Ubuntu connects to my wireless network when it wakes up from sleep. I didn't have this annoyance when I was using 10.04, and only appeared when I upgraded to 10.10. It takes about 5-7 seconds before it indicates that it's connecting. When I was using 10.04, it only took a maximum of 2 seconds for it to indicate that it's in the process of connecting to my network.
