Solaris Express Slow to load Gnome
Hi,
I recently installed the latest Solaris Express Developers Edition. I'm building a NAS and want to use RAID Z, and Solaris 10 didn't have the drivers for my HD controller card. Everything is up and running fine, but I notice it takes a good 8 minutes to load gnome (or X, not sure where it is getting held up). When I had Solaris 10 on, everything was fast (30 sec to a minute).
I guess the first step is to check the log files for loading gnome, but where are they? Can I get the graphical interface to load verbose? How?
Thanks,
Cisco
