gdm starts very slow

[mdfed]

Fedora 18 Beta RC 1 - GDM starts very slow.

The first boot gets the white circle filled it which turns into the blue FC logo and the mouse
pointer is a spinning blob. The system stays like that for more than 30s.

[AdamW]

we'd need some logs to know what's going on there. I have not seen that in my testing.

[mdfed]

here are the logfiles.

[mdfed]

could accountsservice be the Problem? Any tips, hints?

It might be a selinux issue with plymouth

[mdfed]

Hi Yelloman,

setting selinux to permissive solved my problem. no more gdm errors in the logfiles.

its a selinux-problem.

thanks for the tip!

[jpollard]

Nooo... it a gdm error caught by SELinux...

Do you find a selinux alert notification for the issue anywhere? Can you file a bug on it? Thanks!

There was but since disabling selinux I can't access it

[AdamW]

try setting selinux to permissive rather than disabling it. Also you may be able to just copy/paste it from /var/log/audit/audit.log .

I just installed fedora 18 beta and I think i'm seeing this too. GDM takes an absurd time to load. Is there a bug reported for this yet?

Here's my log: http://pastebin.com/z8CnWH3Y
