Slow-startup.

Hi all,

I'm test-driving the yocto-edison version, Target-armv7 (testing on imx-53x cpu).

But,  I’m having a strange problem.

It takes very long to start the device, every time [not only the first time], at each reboot cycle it takes up to 3 minutes before I get the desktop.

At the current time I got to the point (by using printf into the code on 1001 places)  that it is the _mb_font_load() in matchbox-lib that makes the startup extremely slow. (system seems to ‘hang’ for more the 3 minutes before the matchbox-desktop pops up.)


Any information available on this?
Any hints where to look at ?


Kind regards
Noel

Hi Noel,

Are you also integrating Freescale xorg driver and related libs?
Also Freescale has a large set of patchs for the kernel that are not
in mainstream, you can take a look at L2.6.35_11.09.01_ER_source_boundle.tar.gz
located at [1] and [2] which is an experimental meta layer than I'm working on for adding
Freescale Arm support but still has some problems thanks to the way Fsl distributes it's
source code and need to manually copy some source packages in Pokys download dir;
